Topic: Escrow Service by Dabs (Read 12558 times)

I don't usually get these types of requests as the minimum fee (0.03 BTC) is usually higher than the value of the AWS account, but yes, it can be done, and I would need access to verify the AWS account before releasing escrow.

Ideally both parties also know how to use GPG encryption so the AWS credentials are not in the clear.

Hello Deb, respect.

I was advised by a user to follow a list for escrow service. Reference

While some of the terms in your OP may not suitable for us however we still have not finalised our terms yet. Please have a look at my announcement topic: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/looking-for-escrow-service-for-an-anonymous-crypto-project-5089762

If you are interested then please make a comment in my topic.

Close, but no cigar.

I guess we're not doing everything right. We don't have billboards or ads along the highways like they do.

Oh well ...

My best guess is Onesimus

But anyway, good luck with your ventures

You are making assumptions based on what? There is a website, but there is no online business as of yet. The business is primarily offline, in stores as indicated previously. And of course they are incorporated. However, I am not actively engaged in said businesses, I used to be their payroll master and head of the accounting department. Other family members have taken over that responsibility.

So yes, we deal with the Sys and the Gocongweis, as well as suppliers from Divisoria, but we rarely talk to them directly.

If you want to buy our product, go to either SM or Robinson's in Makati. Or the biggest downtown area you can. Buy the best looking barong and formal pants, from the friendliest staff. You will probably get our brand, if not, we're doing something wrong.

We also produce for SM's house brand "Exclusive" but we are not the only supplier, so just get the best quality that you can find there, and it might be produced by our factories.

If you need alterations done, both malls have our stores, and we are the ones inside the department stores as well as a branded service in the mall area.

If you need custom tailored suits, there are a few stand alone branches out there that do business separately from the ready to wear merchandise in the malls ... I'm biased when I say we have the best master cutters and tailors and you get what you pay for since there is a premium, but at an average cost of 10k to 15k PHP it is still cheaper than getting suits made in London or Hong Kong.

Personally, I get stock sizes from the warehouse that fit me. Don't have time to get fittings these days.

So its a sole / partnership business... I though it has online website.


Reason: I might buy some of their product. I'm not doubting a legend but its still useful to give some proofs.

Why, what is the main reason?

Anyway, salute to Sir Dabs!

Kababayan...

Bump!

I'd rather not say, it is run by the family. We sell formal wear and also do alteration services for clothes. It's not relevant since that business is traditional and does not accept crypto payments.

What is the name of your Philippine Company

Very trustworthy person with awesome reputation in this community. More power to you Dabs!

Hi there Dabs;

Would you mind overseeing this transaction?
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/tattoo-design-bounty-05-btc-529635

Cheers

Its $21722.08 USD

Not sure if that is a lot of money or not. Cool bling pic though.

Yeah, it's not like there has been a single scam during the 5 years btc has been alive.

I'll just put this here:

Or the pics, if you're curious:

Thumbs up for dabs

Now accepting BTC, LTC, TAG, POT, and DOGE directly. All other coins, only if it is listed on Cryptsy.

Just a note, my time zone is UTC+8, and I am usually online on weekdays, during my office hours, and I am usually offline on weekends. However, depending on your particular needs, I can try to be online if you are in a hurry.

Most escrow contracts involving shipping goods take more than a day or two. Only transactions involving crypto to crypto or cash or online gift cards are time sensitive but still require confirmations on the blockchain / block explorer.

seems your service is very good now. Will remember it

good to hear now you are doing work is some other crypt o currencies also

I might as well add LTC.

In theory I could handle any crypto coin that is on the popular exchanges, such as cryptsy and btc-e, and the new tagcash exchange, but then they wouldn't exactly be in cold or offline storage. (I can generate cold addresses for most coins that have QT wallet software.)

Updating my fee structure due to the price increase of BTC/USD to the following:

Fee:
>1 BTC - 10 BTC escrowed - 1%
>10 BTC - 20 BTC escrowed - 1.5%
>20 BTC - 100 BTC escrowed - 2%
>100 BTC - 500 BTC escrowed - 1.5%
>500 BTC - 1000 BTC escrowed - 1%
>1000 BTC escrowed - 0.5%

Minimum Fee: 0.03 BTC

It used to be:


And, I also do TAG.

Dabs completed an escrow transaction for 2.4BTC where I bought items from mavrick951. The transaction was smooth, and both mavrick and dabs were very professional about it.

What are you talking about? I've had a dozen contracts already. They are all private.

who will be the first for Dabs its a big question he needs some one to give him something ??

I had no idea that Dabs was so cool.

Note: Many users reported that my public key was invalid, even though it was actually valid. When verifying the signature, if you receive an error message stating that the signing key is invalid, you need to sign my public key with your private key first (then the error message will no longer appear).

In other words, the "Invalid Key" error message does NOT mean that my key is actually invalid (you just need to sign the key, after you add it to your keyring, in order to mark the key as trusted). That's how PGP and GPG work.

I'm pasting the public key here, just in case you can't get it from the keyserver.


Another note: You're not supposed to sign a key unless you trust the owner of that key. And if you don't want to trust me, then you shouldn't be using me as your escrow agent.

Thanks for all the positive comments! Yes, Philippines. Lots of news here recently, typhoons, floods, and politics. The big time scammers who pocket millions of Philippine Pesos of government money don't use bitcoin. Yet. (They also do not know how to use encryption.)

Phillipines apparently.

Hey Kababayan goodluck with your escrow service!

Your in the force?  Which country?

I used to be in air cadets lol

Good luck for the escrow!

Looks like a good escrow service. I did not know you were such a badass in real life.

just completed a sale using Dabs as my escrow agent for a deal. everything went smoothly, and I now have the coins in my wallet. thanks Dabs. chanberg was the buyer. he was super easy to deal with, and gave Dabs the ok to release my funds as soon as he received his item. if chanberg wants to share any more info about the deal, i'll leave that up to him.

End of August is almost here, just a few more days. Just so we don't have issues, I will end the promotional offer on Sunday, regardless of what time zone you are in. That would be September 1.

Effective Sunday 01 September 2013, 00:01 (whatever time zone you are in) my fee will be as posted above.

Thank you for all the contracts so far.

By the way, escrows include lotto/raffle contracts. I've done a few (based on how I conduct my lotto) for others.

Bitcoin maybe not, but if you are buying something with it, from some person you are not sure about, you will want to use a third party to hold the coins until the product or service is delivered.

bitcoin no needs escrow ~ that's what satoshi told mei

Hi,

I might as well offer my services in bitcoin based escrow.

I will issue a contract signed by my GPG key below and also in my forum signature, with the Bitcoin address embedded within the message. Please do not accept a Bitcoin address that is not GPG signed.

On the event that any problems arises, I will release the escrow to whichever party that presents me with the most convincing proof after an open discussion with others.

As a promotional offer my fee starts at 0.5% (half a percent) with no minimum until the end of August 2013. After that, regular rates apply as shown below. I will also accept tips and donations in kind (shares for example.)


Sincerely,

Dabs

Online Escrow Service by Dabs

Fee:
up to 100 BTC escrowed - 1%
>100 BTC escrowed - 2%

Minimum Fee: 0.1 BTC

Area:
Given my time demands this will be online only. I am located in the Philippines, Metro Manila. I move about between Las Pinas City, Muntinlupa City, Makati City, and San Pedro, Laguna.

In person fees will be 1% if you come to my country.

Armed security will be provided for >10,000 BTC escrowed if in person and in country.

Reputation:
* Owner of Philippine Company, with >180 employees.
* Registered with DTI (Department of Trade and Industry) and SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission).
* Has physical stores in more than 30 locations in SM Malls, Robinsons Department Stores, and The Landmark.
* Commissioned Officer in the Armed Forces of the Philippines with the rank of Lieutenant.
* Exempted from the nation-wide gun ban during election periods.
* Hero member Dabs.

Terms:
Dabs will not invest or otherwise in any way use funds under escrow. Escrowed funds are segregated in a single use address in an offline wallet. Escrowed funds become a debt obligation owed by Dabs until repaid. Dabs is fully responsible for any lost, stolen, hacked, or corrupted coins under escrow.

TrueCrypt Whole Drive Encryption used with 64 character memorized password. Completely air-gapped second hand laptop that has been sanitized, erase, reformatted, and installed a clean OS for this purpose only.

In case of incapacitation, I have an attorney and accountant who can act on my behalf. These instructions will be given to them in a sealed envelope and opened only in case I can not continue the escrow.

Notes:
DO NOT BRING CASH to the Philippines.
DO NOT TAKE CASH out of the Philippines.

That's what bank wires are for.

I can accept bank wires. I can send bank wires.

Non-citizens with an ACR (Alien Registration Card) can open a Philippine bank account. You can also use a trusted third party like a relative or friend, (or me.)

Both buyer and seller must accept foreign currency exchange rates if you are sending me USD that will be converted to PHP, and vice versa.

My personal bank accounts has transactions in the millions of pesos regularly. If the seller sends me a bank wire for 10,000 BTC worth it will not be a problem.


Below is a picture of me, from another thread. This is in 2009 when I got married. I am an officer and a gentleman. If you are Filipino or know someone in the military, you can show this picture to them. They won't recognize me, but they will recognize the badges and pins. They might also recognize the background as the chapel or church where I got married inside Camp General Emilio Aguinaldo, Quezon City.

On the right pocket (left looking at me) is a rifle sharpshooter badge under my name plate.

On the left pocket (right looking at me) are the light armor badge and the field artillery badge.

The yellow egg looking badge is Special Forces.

There are additional pins in my updated uniform this year.

Some portions have been blurred to prevent local insurgents and rebels from making me an assassination target.

Here is a discussion thread as additional information
Is there a market for large escrow transactions? 10k or 100k BTC?

Light Armor means a small tank.
Field Artillery means a big gun. (105 mm diameter, or about 4 inch wide bullets.)
