I had another car that I sold for $24000 where the buyer paid in cash.
The largest denomination in circulation here is the $100 bill (note), so
that was a stack of cash. That went into the bank (after taking some
creative photos with the money). There are small bank branches in
grocery stores here and I deposited the money at one of those kinds of
branches. It was more cash than they were used to dealing with and they
didn't want to take it.

I sold a $3500 car once for cash to a guy who
sold his goods at a booth
at fairs and shows. He received lots and lots of $20 bills in payment,
so that is what he paid me with. I kept the cash instead of depositing
it in the bank and going to an ATM to get cash out.
I hear that. I also bought a
motorbike this way once. The dealers gave
me a discount "for cash". I was na?ve and thought that meant actual
specie and turned up with ?2000 in notes. The poor salesman nearly had
an unfortunate little personal accident and was fearful his boss would
give him grief for leaving so much in the company safe. He had merely
meant "not for credit" and had expected a banker's draft or the like.
