Whatever you decide to do, it's never a good idea to go to a stranger's home on your own.
I would tell him you are uncomfortable going into a strangers house and if he can just bring them to the gate, that would be better. I also would not go alone. Bring someone with you! Or, pass on the ponies. Even rare ponies aren't worth that kind of risk. And it is a very real risk. People get hurt from this sort of thing all the time.

It's a normal question to ask if they bring it to the gate if you don't want to enter the house. Its also normal to take someone with you or meet up in public place if you feel uncomfortable.I sense a bit of unnecessary drama with the responds. If this person was someone from here would it be different?Up here its quite common to pick up ponies/stuff at someones place if you agree on pick up. And payment is usually made at the doorstep. If I sell ponies outside the pony community its shipping only, I don't want strange people at my doorstep. Especially if they don't show up on the agreed hour.

I'm glad to hear that you aren't going to a stranger's home. I hope that it all works out for you. Good luck!
