Found a buyer, but in the craigslist email notice, I read the following...
What's the best way to deal with buyers?
Post a "buy now" on eBay to cover both our butts?
The "avoid scams locally" I question, locally is better, if someone renegs on a deal you punch the fucker. :D , no?

** CRAIGSLIST ADVISORY --- AVOID SCAMS BY DEALING LOCALLY
** Avoid: wiring money, cross-border deals, work-at-home
** Beware: cashier checks, money orders, escrow, shipping
** More Info: http://www.craigslist.org/about/scams.html

Me:

His reply...

It must be such a drag to be a legitimate businessman in Nigeria, and be unable to import anything because everyone thinks it is a scam. There must be some.
