I have several other looking at the car so I am not really motivated to jump onto a scam, but at the same time I do not want to blow someone off that may be legit....

Can take two weeks at least for the buyers check to "really" clear.
Your bank, wanting to provide you with good service will pre-clear it in a week.
The scammer will cash your good check and disappear.
When your bank finally figures out buyers check is bad they come after you for the money they gave you.
Thats the scam.
