Default Legit or Scam?

Haven't seen an email like this before.. its about my ad posted on CL for my PC.

Hello, is this still available for sale? if it is, I will like to buy it . I am from WI, and also I am offering you $500 for this item, the extra amount is for the packaging cost. I already made an arrangement on sending you cash through the Standard United State Postal Services (USPS) whereby they will come and deliver your money to you at your residence in 2 -3 business days, and when my payment is confirmed and approved, then I will start to make an arrangement on sending fedex to come pick it up for me at your contact address. For me to complete the payment, I will need your name, address, city, state so as to know where I am sending payment to. If my offer is accepted, please get back to me with the infos which i requested for asap for the payment to be completed cos i want to send it to a friend of mine urgently.

Note: I will take care of the shipment with my fedex acct.
from a gmail account as well.. should I bother pursuing? I have never seen this type of approach yet..
