See, in Ohio you do not need a background check to sell a firearm to another individual, when the seller is NOT a FFL. You only need a reasonable belief that the buyer is not a prohibited person. In most transactions, this reasonable belief is covered by showing the other party your OH Concealed Weapons Permit, but that's just a common practice and not a requirement by any means. FFL to non-FFL sales do require a background check.

I can't find the exact Ohio Revised Code reference at the moment...got it socked away somewhere with my soon to expire OH CWP.

Nearly everywhere, including here before SAFE, that's how it is. Minus the "show a CCW" bit.

You take your property , you do a free exchange of goods and/or services and you leave. I never even showed a Driver License.

That's how it should be.
