I do free escrows
I would follow the post John k made in the meta section as that is the post he will probably reply to when he returns.
so who is the go-to trusted escrow provider at the moment? i have need of one, figured John K would still be available when I needed him. all things change.
hope the fella is ok though.

You may try SebastianJu (https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/sebastianju-18640). Group buy organizer and pleasant fellow. Also TAT (https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/thickasthieves-79242) who has a fixed fee of 0.5 BTC, if this is still up-to-date.

So, john k is still missing, i think i found with his email address this facebook profile "John Koh"
They sorted it but he disappeared again for over a month as of now, scary
Was this sorted out? He still hasn't been online... 
theymos, do you have any idea where John is, or when he might return?
I suppose that he's busy with school. But I haven't talked to him.
Well, if you have any way of contacting him outside the forum, it would be helpful for him to know that there are a number of people with outstanding escrow to be released. I'm going to email him tonight.
You can do 1% escrow here http://mentaso.com/escrow.html

2-of-3 multisig escrow is also possible in Bitcoin-Qt now, though it's a little complicated. I recommend multisig for large escrows.

You guys might want to checkout bit2factor the next time you want to use an escrow service. The website is an implementation of BIP38. Also, it might be useful to check out bitescrow.
Those websites aren't might, but they look very promising as far as I can see.

He did mention an offline lawyer who was supposed to be his backup, and has instructions on how to do the escrow. But that was when he was still in Malaysia.
Dabs, if you have the contact details for this lawyer, perhaps we could consider a reasonable timeframe in which to approach them? Good news.
John K logged on, replied, and released the escrow funds today.
Thanks again to all who contributed information in the interim.

Nice! That must have been a relief.

Still waiting. He hasn't logged in since 11/3.... does anybody know if he went out of town or something? I'm starting to get nervous.
this is sadly the problem with using escrow.. however i am very surprised he dosnt have another person or 2 keeping everything in check, hell he seems to have planned for everything else
hope hes ok though dont recall the last time he was away from here for more than a few days

Well I did remind him to have a BCP in place, in case he was busy or away.
We're still waiting on John to refund the rest of ragingazn's asic chip group buy thread here.
If anyone has seen or heard from him, please let him know. Thanks.

I did see him come online on my email and whatsapp.
He never replied to me too.
Not sure why he's still busy nowadays.
I have a small sum from sale of goods pending release.
