Those are keywords of a scammer: My shipper will be coming to pick it up.
Paypal may indeed credit your account with the funds based on a check they received from the scammer.
Once the check bounces, you will be responsible for the bad funds fees and your pin will be gone.

But, more likely they are simply trying to get you to email them with your personal email address so they can sell it. That's why they include their address instead of craigs email system.

I got this one tonight trying to buy my machine off Craigs. He wants to pay more than my asking price. What a scam artist. Watch for this clown. The name on the email is ododo haleroo.

"My name is Jackson am currently out of town right now and am interested in buying this for my Niece who is presently on a construction project in oversea so am willing to pay you $3500 including the postage cost and hope this is real and not a scam?? "
