I admire your candor here:

Criticisms are welcome, please help me improve this service!

Are you an American or are you providing escrow services for Americans and if so are you are all concerned that you do not appear to be a licensed escrow agent or bonded against loss in any US state or territory?


More importantly, who gives a shit if he's licensed or not? If he's trustworthy, people have nothing to worry about. You think John K. is licensed? And yet I would trust him with an escrow of any amount.

Free Escrow Service tip:

Lots of scammers around.  Be sure to perform all the background investigation into a users reputation and overall personality before doing business.  If you do business, have both parties sign a gpg-signed contract.

In fact you can perform escrow yourself using blockchain.info's

https://blockchain.info/wallet/escrow

Escrow service.

Trust your gut, but verify any positive trust feelings you have.  Talk to someone he's done business with, check the IRC chat logs of the individuals name, read their old posts, search their name on the forums.

Look out happy bitcoiners!  Be sure to pick up some cheap coins around 88!  Maybe even 40?!?1  0.o

You should offer zero-trust escrow using my cryptographic escrow tool, or an equivalent (such as BitEscrow.org)

I'll look into this tonight.  Thanks for the advice!

What is the ZeroConfirmations Link?     Just this:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

DW’s Easy Escrow Service

Funds:

A new cold wallet will be generated on an offline computer.  This address will be encrypted with my OTC public key (ID:463BEC07) and sent to the buyer and seller.

Funds are kept entirely in this cold address and will never be touched (especially not lent out!). Both parties will be able to verify the funds are present in the blockchain.

Dispute Resolution Policy:

My role is an escrow service and I will not engage a contract that does not fully cover all the appropriate "What Ifs" for a transaction.  It is your responsibility to protect your interests and cover all possible points of dispute before commencing a trade.

In the event that a dispute arises between the buyer and seller, the onus of proof is on each party.  The escrow will be released to whichever party presents the most convincing proof, along with a round-table discussion with both parties. This is where your due diligence comes into play.

Due Diligence:

The parties involved will create a contract laying out each person.s responsibilities and expected actions for all possible issues that could occur with their transaction.  Escrow will not begin until both parties have agreed and signed the contract which is appropriate to the trade (via gpg signature).

Clients are expected to document their side of the transaction thoroughly (to the appropriate level of the transaction).

Buyers, please videotape/webcam the un-boxing/testing of the items.

Sellers,  for shipping, require a signature, use insurance for complete item value, and create digital copies of all receipts.  Attach tracking information and forward these documents to me at [email protected]

No Fees  --  Tips very much appreciated!


Contact:   Please contact me with any questions, concerns, or advice.        

                                

Bitcointalk.org Forum - PM me anytime -- I am generally available during normal EST waking hours

IRC nick: deadweasel - use the ;;ident deadweasel command in channel  to verify I am authed (who I say I am)

[email protected]   Email me anytime, day or night, I am never far from email.             Phone number will be supplied in any contract that requires it.

        Please use encryption for all formal escrow communications:
