This is the email from the scammer

Thanks a lot for the email. I am away at sea at the moment, on the west aquarius submersible to be precise, we do not have access to phone at the moment, its 15days off and 15days on, which is why I contacted you with internet messaging facility, i\'m glad you accepted my offer. I am buying this for my dad in Canada, i\'m a Canadian. I decided not to choose the local market of Canada and to choose the U.S.A eBay market as its a far larger one than the local Canada one and gives me more freedom of choice, the shipping cost and all will be worth it at the end of the day, I want to purchase it for my dad he will love this as a surprise so much, he is so much of an enthusiast! does it have any history I should be aware of? Are you the first owner? I am already in talks with freighters that will handle the pickup and delivery to my dad. I will really appreciate if you can email more info and pics. As regards the payment, I can pay you through direct bank deposit, using paypal instant bank wire transfer service, I will need your bank details. If you are not comfortable with that, you can set up a paypal account proper at www.paypal.com and I will make the payment through paypal, this way, all I will need is your paypal email address. Do let me know how you want to go.

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
