It could be a Testudo graeca (Greek), or a Testudo Hermanni (Hermann's). The photos have poor lighting so I cannot see the head features very well. I would need a full carapace shot from above to see the shell coloring and patterns, and a plastron shot to know for sure if it's a Greek (they have random black spotting on their bellies), or a Hermann's (they have two solid black bands).

Whichever it is, that's a damned good price!!
