You have no obligation to the first inquiry but it's probably courteous to let him know the situation and see if he is willing to take the card sight unseen. Just make it clear to the second caller that you have an obligation to contact the other first. It's complicated and in a perfect world the first buyer would say "I need the card, I like the price, I'll take it, scan isn't necessary."
