Spam or Scam?

This kind of thing really makes me appreciate Astromart. Let's have some fun with these real emails, best one wins. I guess Tak FS152s grow on trees:

Hello:
Sorry for contacting you in this way, but I have see that you are interested into a 'Takahashi FS-152 Fluorite Refractor Telescope'(I have see that you have bid on one like that) and I have one like that too.
I have`t think to sell it untill now but I must sell it because my father have big problems(my aunte have died and my father is the only one who can make the funeral things and he need money to do it).
I want to sell it, but I don`t know with how much .
So, if you are interested to buy it, please e-mail me back and we can make a fast transaction and a secure one.

What kind of price was he offering?
WTH ask him!

And then there were escrow accounts. may be too much trouble. but if serious about a 4k transaction, then maybe not so much.
