will video protect seller in a dispute?

Wasn't sure if we should offer to accept paypal for a larger purchase.  Not a huge dollar amount, we're asking $750, but enough to entice a scammer.  The catch is that the item is a home riding lawn mower, so the cost to deliver (and have proof of delivery) is not feasible.  Wasn't sure if taking video of the buyer driving away with the mower would help in a dispute.  I looked at a few threads and mostly saw where paypal didn't even allow the video evidence to be submitted, but admittedly, I didn't read all of the threads.  

If the best answer is cash only, we can do that.  Just exploring our options.  Thanks!

Best answer is "cash".

 

If you check out the User Agreement, the type of item you're selling has to be delivered or picked up in person - meaning you would not be covered for Seller Protection.   So "cash" is your best option.
