Scam. You are prone to them, selling things like mobiles on eGay.

Whoever buys it, don't be surprised if in about 6-8 weeks after you've sent it, Paypal all of a sudden take all the money back from you.

That happened to me - never again...
I suspect it has happened to virtually everyone who has tried to sell 'risky' items on eGay.

Yes I agree, definitely a highly suspicious scam.  

Also have had money taken off me after a suspicious payment was sent to me - fortunately after I complained loudly and long about paypal and ebay not making it possible for me to stop this kind of thing happening (it was a BIN item, so he could buy it, pay for it and nothing I could do, as far as ebay is concerned it had been won.., as far as paypal were concerned the card details were stolen and they reversed the payment).  I did get an ex gratia payment out of paypal in the end but it cause me more than a little trouble as my paypal balance was in the negative for a while, so I couldn't pay to post another item that had been sold.

Avoid like the plague hun.  U will end up losing money one way or the other.
