Just warming up for this year's Veering Championships.

The seller says that he's going to bring it in to his guitar tech to have it checked out and have them go over it and see if it needs any work.
Hmmm... I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Wouldn't you know first hand if your guitar needed "work" and if so, wouldn't you do that before putting it up for sale?
I'll wait and see what the report will be.
I'm not sure that is a bad thing. There are a lot of people who sell things that they don't know much about or, more to the point, don't know as much as the buyer. If it is not being used much then the seller might not know or remember specific things about condition.
In my case if I had a buyer that was annoying me with very specific questions, I might very well take a guitar to tech. That gets personalities out of the transaction. If you buy the instrument and disagree with any of the statements made pre-sale I can refer you to the tech and don't have to waste my time listening to you tell me how I was supposed to measure the scale length.
So if someone told me they were going to have their tech check out the instrument it might be a good thing and make me more inclined to buy that particular instrument.
With all due ironic humor, maybe the tech bought it.At my third attempt, he just said he would bring the guitar to his guitar tech to have it checked out... never ever acknowledging my question about the bridge. He has since removed the listing from Reverb.
