It got weird after COVID. Of the stuff I sold, a lot of people would ask if I could deliver. Even for small items, and far more often than they would before the pandemic. Of the stuff I buy, people would ask if I wanted it delivered. I understood for large items like couches. It made no sense for stuff like DVDs. (Porch pick up or neutral location for me always.)
So I just offer it right out the gate now. If they're "selling" something and it's a scam, it filters them out. If I'm buying something, it lets them know I'm not going to ask them to jump through hoops.
