thanks man i used paypal before and trust me irts one of the worst proccessors to use
Why aren't services like BITHALO or counterparty mentioned?? 3rd party escrow is exactly what we (crypto) want to avoid... Decentralized currency... No coercion.. No monopolies... No more mt. gox or moolahs man. These "trusted" escrows are all trusted until the price is right then "oops we lost the funds"... :/
Unfortunately any escrow is essentially a 3rd party, Tho I agree with you, but this list is for users on bitcointalk.org wishing to help the community, not users hiding behind a company name on a fake whois website (not reference to pre-mentioned services) so when they run of with coins it's the companies fault.
NOTE TO EVERYONE - I have not done this list in ages, Been caught up with squall coin stuff, I will do over the weekend, please message here or PM if I STILL have not listed you, Please accept my apology.

In these times of Mass scammers out there, I urge people to use an escrow. There are many good members out there willing to help to secure the bitcoin community, There are also more people willing to do anything to scam you out of your coins, Please just do your research on someone before you part with your hard earned coins.
An escrow list
Note to mod, I know this is in the wrong section as I am not selling anything, I feel we all need to be wiser, People in the selling forums are less likely to look elsewhere for information on what this is and how it is acheved,
Even if a few people read this and use escrow, Or a few scammers don't get their coins, I will consider this a good job.
Please consider not moveing out the way, This needs to be addressed.

Liar, nothing is 100% safe. This thread is an example and proves that we will be fooled everyday!

Have been using escrow for a long period now, but is nothing if you are transacting with a trustworthy person
When we give people the authority to handle the transactions, we give them the right to take decisions. According to me, escrow services are probably going to replace banks for the most part at least when it comes to physical goods.
My program makes it easy to create an escrow between two people without a middleman. It use bitmessage network to send key's and all what need to create multisig escrow. The only negative, you should have downloaded the whole blockchain because program use Satishi's bitcoin-qt. Developing lite version with electrum. It is open source. More about it https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/completely-decentralized-and-anonymous-marketplace-589578 or bitxbay.ws
With escrow we can very safe ..... 
Thats exactly what the problem is of the people at most of the forums , they dont know how to deal online and after they are scammed they blame the forum to have bad members and dont see what they are doing .
Forgive my ignorance, I saw that the trustworthiness of "john k" was called into question on this thread, how did that shake out? I am asking because I am triyng to get a handle on things before I look to use an escrow service when I sell my coins. He was quite high on the list of trusted persons.
he came back, said he was ill, repaid his escrows and went off again. he is not around enough to use.research the wot also http://bitcoin-otc.com/viewratings.php
I have used Escrows many times. but I never use single MM for Big trancations, rather I Divide that amount and Use different MM, this is because I have Seen on some forums MM has also Scamed Peoples.
But escrow is always best option

While I support what you are saying the problem is we will never get btc main stream if we continue to escrow. We actually need a service like ebay or place where people transfer their btc and leave it there and the shipper ships the items to them once he posts the tracking number he should be paid. I am selling some stuff. I dont mind accepting escrow/btc/credit cards. But I would prefer people use more btc then any other method.

Thx for the list,im trying to sell my one of my Cam BTC Girls website HotCam.ro on https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.7392067 and for sure i will use an escrow from the list.Thx again.
k I just read up on escrow. Basically escrow is for btc. As a seller I do have a question it says that the buyer has to release the funds once the seller ships. What if the seller ships and buyer doesnt release the funds where does the seller stand then?

Thanks
