The big problem is not going to be legitimate parkers lingering a few minutes after they finish their shopping trying to sell their space. It is going to be people who would not otherwise be there specifically grabbing spots to sell.
One of the other parking app companies, ParkModo, is already paying people to do just that. They offer $13/hr to people to go to the Mission District on weekend peak hours, find spots and take them, and then give them up to ParkModo users.
