One comment to ease your first "item to be aware of", quoted below, if someone needs to draw funds from a Coinbase or Circle account to pay for a purchase they could always transfer the funds to an independent wallet and then pay you from that wallet. There's nothing (that I know of) that extends Coinbase or Circle control or liability beyond purchases made from their wallets...because they own the wallets anyone uses, you just have an account with them.

1. BTC transfers related to firearms on the standard US regulated exchanges are not allowed. Please be aware of this before you purchase BTC from coinbase or circle.
- https://www.circle.com/en/legal/us-user-agreement "18. Prohibited items... ...weapons of any kind, including but not limited to firearms, ammunition, knives, or related accessories..."
- https://www.coinbase.com/legal/user_agreement?locale=en "Regulated Products and Services... age restricted goods or services; weapons and munitions; gunpowder and other explosives..."

Just because one can break the rules or law doesn't mean they should. I accept bitcoin regardless of where it comes from. I can exchange it myself without the use of these websites. But if the buyer is caught they could be suspended from these services.
