Sounds legit. Just make sure your buddy sends his SSN and DOB to make sure everything goes smoothly.

Sometimes you have to allow people to be stupid. It's good for them. As soon as he ships that boat that paypal reversal will be immediate

Tried to sell a car on CL once. Out of the 14 emails I got, one was an actual person, and it was a low-ball offer. I just said frick it and traded it in.

And there's the scam. Guy said he's putting the money plus a thousand in PayPal and wants my buddy to western union his transport a thousand dollars. Lol. Do people really fall for this shite?!
