Its a well known scam to charge delivery.
He'll ask you to send money to cover shipping and you'll pay shipping then never here from them again.

The other scam when selling it that they have been known to send you a cheque to cover the price of your car and also include costs to cover shipping. You then stick the cheque in the bank and when it's cleared in 3 days you stick your car on a boat and pay the shipping.

They then cancel the cheque. The 3 day clearance by the bank is only done as a goodwill jesture. It can take several weeks to truly clear.

You end up with no car and out of pocket for the shipping.
