Thanks for clarifying. I had a hunch you were who he was talking about but I couldn't find any info on you doing an escrow service.
I get asked to do them pretty often, but I really do not want the hassle. I know kotarius pretty well from mining and IRC, and have sold him a lot of hardware. He does not use these forums much so I see why he wanted me to handle it. Kotarius - OgNasty is very trustworthy and I use him all of the time for escrow.
