Need opinions on this used Cannondale - To buy or not to buy - Update

This bike was posted on CL in my area. Its a mens cannondale touring bike t700 and they are asking $375. Comes with everything pictured including a second rack bag for the rear (one was removed for picture.) Seller states its about 10 years old and belonged to his father-in-law who rode it on long tours and used it to commute. He is not a "bike-guy" and is unsure if the tires are any good anymore. He also isn't sure of the actual frame size. He says its not printed on the bike but he says when he measures the seat tube from just above the crank to the top of the tube its 25". I'm 6'2" with a 35-36 inch inseam. Will this bike be too big for me? Is this a reasonable price for a bike of this age and use? Any other questions I should ask him?


Also, would this serve as a better street riding/kid trailer pulling/possible commuting bike than a new Dew Plus for $500?
