Is it safe to buy a camera on Mercari?

Hello, I’m planning to buy a digital camera on Mercari for around 50-70k yen. Some might say to just go for a new one, but honestly, the main reason I’m checking out Mercari is that the prices are almost half of the original. Plus, I’ve been hunting for this model for months since Sony isn’t releasing new ones anymore.

I’m just wondering, how likely is it to get scammed on Mercari? I’ve checked out the sellers, and they seem legit. But if you have any tips or advice, I’d love to hear them. Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Thanks to everyone who commented (super helpful). I’ll try visiting first some second hand stores and see if the camera I want is there 🙂
