I saw this tortoise on craigslist. She/he appears to have pyramiding and doesn't look healthy. I am new to tortoises and only have a Greek that I also found on craigslist. What kind is this tortoise?

Looks like mine! A redfoot. Mine has some pyrmiding like that also which I think came from too low humidity. RF need heat and lots of humidity and many try to keep them like greeks/sulcatas/hermanns with low humidity. The wetter the better for a RF. Here is a link to a RF caresheet that I use. http://www.turtletary.com/redfootcare.htm

Thanks everyone. A redfoot won't work for my setup then. If anyone else is interested it is in the Columbus, Ohio Craigslist for $75.
