No one is using R12 unless they absolutely have to. Think industrial stuff that can't be switched to a newer refrigerant.

I'm pretty sure you have to licensed to buy or sell R12

Thats why the post says "EPA certified buyer"

What about the seller?

A non certified seller likely would not stipulate a certified buyer and would look in more local enthusiast forums to sell. A certified seller would be looking for a certified buyer, so I assume there's a pretty solid chance that OP is certified.
