What makes you think he's trying to rip you off? It appears that all he wants to know is if the item is for sale and what it's condition is.

Although the english is incredibly awful, and the item is obviously for sale if its on craigslist, he could be an innocent idiot.

Or he could try scamming you out of cash by convincing you the condition is now worth the asking price.
