It looks like it should be aired up and ready to roll, so take it for a test ride.
Ask the seller when the last time the hubs, bottom bracket, and headset were cleaned and repacked. If it has been a while, then put that on your to-do list.
I tend to be a bit too trusting. But, you can look up bicycle serial numbers on
Stolen Bike Registry
I was surprised at the number of silver/chrome Super Le Tour bikes that showed up.
Unfortunately none have enough information to be identifiable.
Virtually all Craigslist transactions are CASH. It is just expected.
I've never had problems meeting at people's houses, or sometimes at a nearby business.
