When is it okay to cancel a sale?

" I have been trying to set up a date with the buyer that works for him. If he really is bed ridden any date should work (hypothetically), but he has not responded to the two emails I have sent him over the past 4 days (which to me is a red flag)."

I've lost track of how many red flags you've accumulated. My opinion is you made the deal and should honor it... Despite it being so dang scary for you.

I don't understand why some are making this complicated. All Jason has to do is tell the buyer that he is sending the boxes via currier, and make arrangements for the buyer to be there at a certain day/time for delivery. A currier service is very reasonable in this case given the distance and the weight. Instead of using an actual service, Jason makes the delivery himself. The buyer never knows the difference. See how simple?

Yeah who cares that you might loose out on $2700. Just like if you reply to an email from a Nigerian prince saying you will give him your bank account info when you get home. You better follow through no matter how much common sense tells you something is wrong.
