Question
Shalom u’vracha. Is selling chametz through an internet site, such as on the rabbi’s website, considered a lechatchila sale even though no kinyan is performed, or is it preferable to do the sale of chametz in another way with a kinyan (for example, personally with the rabbi)?
Answer
Shalom u’vracha.
The kinyan is not indispensable and is done only in order to show seriousness.
Therefore, someone who finds it more convenient to do it via the website is permitted to do so.
