In Spain soon it will be impossible to pay more than 1k in cash. Current limit is around 3k iirc. I guess it's the same in most EU countries.

Not sure why someone downvoted that. In France it's limited to 1000€ currently.

On that page that you linked it literally says:

"The payment in cash between individuals (purchase of a car or a painting for example) is not limited. A writing is necessary beyond 1,500 € to prove the payments ."

In fact, even below it, where it mentions the 1000 euro limit for professional transactions:

"Note: this limit does not apply to people who have no other means of payment or no deposit account."
