I listed a drumset on Craiglist.  This guy sends me an email saying he wants to come see it.  I email him about a good time to come and he sends me this:

Hello and Thanks for writing back but I'm sorry I won't
be able to come see it anymore. Had thought i was going to be in your town to
come check it out but my plans got changed impromptu as am embarking on a few
weeks business trip to NY tomorrow morning but However, am still interested in
purchasing the item anyway even at the asking price.

Am actually getting it for my cousin as a birthday gift.
If you could sell it to me, I will mail you a bank official check to cover the
cost and also add funds to cover the shipping to where it will be needed as
soon as i get to New York.

I'll also make arrange for a shipper/mover to handle the
pick up and delivery after you might have confirmed you have your cash at hand
in fairness to both parties.

You can Email me back with a name, address and your phone
number to whom and where the check be drawn to.
I'll be more than glad if it can be sold to me.

Write back soon.
Thank you

So, I figure he's trying to get my identity data (name, address, etc) or he plans to send me a check and expect me to ship him the merchandise before it fully clears (11 days).  I ran his email address through Google and found a similar report for him on this site.
