Good call Phil. That's right up there with the escrow everything but shipping. I'll always appreciate you helping me and others out in 2017 when that happened.
Chris - Either you escrow the full amount or you escrow none. That includes having the buyer put shipping costs in escrow. Anything less is not safe for the buyer. If your gear is legit then you are safe.
I am tired . I think I will end my escrow service for the summer.
Others can do it.
I simply don’t want to deal with the hassles of doing it.
People don’t seem to realize a 1 to 1.5 % fee means I need to do 66 to 100 escrows in a row correctly to
Ensure a profit. A single mis send and the profits of a lot of good escrows are spent.
My cousin died after a 42 year life long fight with cystic fibrous.
I was ask to escrow for one person via pm for Chris.
He then tried to cut a deal with a second buyer and mentioned I was dealing with family problems as if he knew me well.
I am really angry that he did this. My cousin was a good person and I was not happy to find he mentioned my pm to his second buyer. Worse yet I am not happy he asked for partial deposits .
As you mentioned I did an escrow in 2017 and 300 in shipping was stolen. I used my fees to,pay off all the shipping lost so buyers edit (lost) spent only their escrow fees, but nothing else.
I will not allow partial escrow of any kind as I don’t want this to ever happen again.
