Both parties make a deposit and it only gets released when both parties decide.
Simple as that.
You don't need some other (possible scammer) in the mix (3rd party).
Crave does have its other uses though, and I'm in / watching that too.
what will happen to my funds now 1050 Sling is at Escrow.. looks like the buyer ain't paying maybe it was test buy:)
who knows.. i can't seem to cancel the order of get my Slings back? what can i do Dev?
Since there is no linux qt yet, I can't even test the wallet.
I'm assuming the buyer had to put up the same amount.. if neither pays/releases you both lose out.
At least that's how I understand things should work.
You should have communicated with the buyer before putting up that much coin.
Contact the buyer via the built in messaging, if they don't respond .. I hope both buyer and seller learned a lesson.
They both should lose out if things don't go as planned, that's fair and how the system should work!
Its funny that's how things usually work out in life too -
example: if you go to a court case, it costs both parties attorney fees and both usually end up feeling like they got screwed lol
