Topic: Escrow for Auctions (Read 453 times)
... or you could just use bitmit
Hi
Is there a post that someone could direct me to which explains how the escrow service works for auctions on this forum?
As you can imagine, doing a search for "escrow" or "escrow John K" is rather futile
It's certainly a service I would want to use, especially when buying relatively valuable, and sometimes virtual, commodities. I would like to know the procedure that is generally followed or accepted, as well as the fee that is charged by those who provide the escrow service.
If such a post exists already, or if someone types one up in response to this, may I recommend that it is stickied on either the Newbies, or Auctions forums?
EDIT:
It seems that just minutes after posting this question, I have found at least some of what I was looking for here:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/john-john-ks-escrow-service-previously-known-as-johnthedong-141672
A step-by-step guide of the process would still be nice. I know I'm always a little concerned when doing things like this for the first time.
A list of the top/most trusted escrowers would also be useful, and I stand by my suggestion of stickying such a post on the forums where escrow is likely to be used.
