Would it be impolite to count money?
Often times when I buy and sell using cash.

As a buyer I would count the money in front of the counterparty to ensure that the whole sum is present, or if I don't count it in front of them, I ask that the seller verify the sum when I hand the cash over.

However as a seller, I wonder if it would be impolite to count the buyer's monetary payment in front of them, signaling that I distrust them and need to verify the amount in question.

Chances are, I am reading too much into it.

IMNSHO "publicly" counting the money is an expression of sunshine: "it's my fiduciary mandate to ensure that you're doing right, and I'm proving to you that I'm not cheating you".
