Default Help me scam the scammer

I've never sold anything on craigslist before, and I'm wondering if I'm getting scammed here or not. I got stuck with one extra ps3 that I couldn't sell before christmas. Here is the first email I got from the potential buyer.

I sent this person an email back saying I was a little uncomfortable sending this to Ireland without getting payment first, but would be willing to work something out. Now I just got this email back.
