So I posted on Craigslist last night and got a reply already this morning, initially from a text that requested I contact him at his email address, which I did, and then in my email.
Here is the text of the email. Something seems fishy to me about this. Is there a way you can get scammed even if a payment clears to your paypal account?? Thoughts on this, please??
"Thanks I'm just asking about it to make sure its in good condition as im buying it for my brother's son as a birthday surprise gift and he doesn't know about it, so can you assure me i will not be disappointed? also no shipment involved as i have a mover that will come for it. Im okay with the price and condition , I can only pay you via one of the fastest and secure way to pay online (PayPal).. Do you have a PayPal account? Let me know asap so i can arrange the payment through PayPal. my shipper will be coming to pick it up as soon as the payment clears into your account .

Pretty confident that's a scam. I've heard of similar scams before, where someone says they are deployed in X country and are buying X item for X person, eventually in the end you get screwed though.
I'd stick to selling locally face to face, and accepting cash and bitcoin only.
