even I cant get people to use me as escrow let alone you.

Why does everyone want to be an escrow anyways?

Right? I was asked to escrow a few times, declined it because it takes too much communication, patience, and formality. Although I wouldn't mind doing it for some people. Just not newbs, because they tend to be flakes, which I've experienced many times.

Same as me. I don't mind escrowing occasional deals or money for sig campaigns but don't really have an interest in being a regular escrow currently as it is far too time consuming and looks to be a largely thankless task. I bet more often than not people will be too cheap to send a tip or even say thanks and the latter is what would bother me the most.

I have 0.30 BTC atm in my wallet if something goes wrong...

This isn't relevant. Escrow is done from trust, not how much you have in your wallet to cover as insurance. If you did your job correctly, then you shouldn't be liable.

Inexperienced escrows are also more likely to fuck up but if they do they will likely be liable for returning the funds. You may have 0.3 in your wallet but is that an amount you would be ok with losing if something goes wrong? These are all things you should be taking into consideration.

I agree, escrowing isn't as easy as it seems. You need to be professional and focussed, and know a lot of rules.

Exactly. This is a valid question everyone should ask. I don't think we need more random escrows but more very trusted ones never hurt. Though I'm sure many people who offer escrow services like this have nothing but good intentions there's also likely a bigger percent who do it with the intent to scam at some point because what better way to get ahold of large amounts of other people's money relatively easy?

maybe because of the tip?  Cheesy

You really don't get much in tips for this type of service and if you're doing it for that you're getting into the wrong business and for the wrong reasons.

Okay, read all your replies.

I have 0.30 BTC atm in my wallet if something goes wrong, so I will not escrow deals that are over 0.30 BTC.


I have done a lot of deals here. Almost none of them have been repped on so yea, it does not count Smiley

So no deals over 0.30 BTC.

You missed the point entirely.

Bro spend some time here, trade and do other stuff make friends, get a hooker, beat up a scammer that didnt pay someone back. Build the trust let people know you first forget escrow lol.

But how did they become trusted? You have to build up that trust before you even start.

i know that but at the very first even theymos have neutral trust here right? hope you get my point..  Wink

have a good night Smiley

Yes, but theymos and everyone else earned that trust over time. They didn't just turn up and say 'give me your money'.

There is no reason for it since I havent been involved with any scams or shady activity.

Now, lets get away from this kind of talk.

People can write if they need a free escrow im available from now and just about 24/7 this weekend.

Offering escrow with no good reason to usually seems pretty shady. Don't take it personally as all new escrows are scrutinised here and so they should be. You're offering to hold on to others money for free and this can easily be taken advantage of. People use escrows because they're trusted to be able to hold funds. Currently you are not so it defeats the purpose and makes others skeptical of you regardless of your intentions.
 
im not against this because all trusted escrow now is untrusted too at first, but unfortunately people here would prefer using the trusted ones... goodluck with your service mate..  Wink

Have to say give the guy a chance. He's not forcing anyone to use him, just offering. People can research and decide themselves whether they think he's the best guy for the job or not.

No one's going to get anywhere without trying and it's a bit sad to see everyone putting someone down who's trying

This is bad logic. That's like saying give a brand new account a shot at trading paypal funds for BTC, or taking a large no-collateral loan. Sure you can take the huge risk, but generally it should be flagged before it happens. Same thing applies here; his account is older, but his reputation is new.

Now don't get me wrong here, I'm not saying he's a scammer, just that there's a higher possibility of him running off. If everyone had the the same attitude of "give the guy a chance", there would have been many more successful scammers.

Just say use him as escrow at you own risk. All reputation start from zero

You should not be offering to escrow a transaction that you are not able to cover if something goes wrong. Do you have any proof of funds to reimburse your customers in case there is a mistake on your end?
