Tongue I know, I know. I get my mails pushed to my phone directly so PM'ing me is a better bet. It's just that I'm making fun of the use of 'rep threads' where each tx must be posted publicly so that the OP gets some sort of rep. I've had people asking me about the location of my 'rep thread'.  Grin

Yeah, I generally disregard "rep threads".  As far as I'm concerned, there's a lot more to a reputation than a list of transactions one maintains for themselves that they can point to and say "see, I didn't scam this list of people".

Agreed.  Smiley

I don't get much traffic here unfortunately as most just PM me directly...*John thinks about making it a requirement to post here before requesting for escrow..... Tongue*

Perhaps this post has something to do with that?

PS: I'm on UTC+8 now, so I might be not around when you PM me.
Also, if I'm not replying to any of your PM's, please do it again as I receive 20+ PM's on average per day.
No worries, I could tell looking at your posting statistics that I had probably just missed you.  Since I was looking for an escrow, I figured that posting here was as good as (better than?) sending you multiple PM messages.
PM'ing would be a better bet then posting here actually. Almost all (if not all) escrow transactions by me are done via PM.  Smiley

Emphasis added by me.

Hello, I'm here to ask your service in a identity verification.
This is the case, I'm selling one of my BFL single's (SHA-256 of course) on ebay and I got an offer for almost $900 after just 1 hour of placing the auction. So, if I sell this thing at a high price I will need an exchange service PP => BTC and since this is a risky transaction and I'm guessing no one will want to exchange that amount unless they are sure I will not run away with the coins and make a charge-back after the transaction.

Is this a valid request?
Hmm... it could be a valid request but you're doing this the wrong way here. Best way would be to find a seller first, and see what he wants.  Smiley Just drop me a PM if you need the escrow/identity stuff.

Great, thanks for the advice.

Hopefully you'll read my PM soon too.
Ah, I think I replied to you hours ago.  Smiley

Finally cleared my backlog of escrow releases for 2 days - about 20 escrows were concluded today alone for a sum of over 2k BTC.  Smiley
I feel lighter now, whew.

Please PM me again if I did not reply your PM, thanks!

Probably not necessary as JohnK is the go-to guy for escrow but I recently did a fairly large transaction and used JohnK, this man is as trustworthy as it gets when it comes to a stranger online, honestly I should just say as it gets I dont even trust people I know in real life with the amount escrowed

If I had them I would trust this man with my kids he will do you no wrong, I will only exclusively use JohnK as escrow why? simply because he is the best in the business,

thank you john and looking forward to future transactions,

 Cry Thanks again for the good words - I'm honored. (and grateful as only a small handful of guys post here to confirm)

I have one more question. Have you done, escrow in the past or offer it, where the seller sets a fixed price. Like 100. BTC X $120 (example). To protect the seller from fluctuations in BTC prices.
Many thanks for your time.
Brian

Uh, nope so far. I've only done a LR escrow though (where the price is fixed, of course) , although that'll be different from a purely BTC escrow.
