Escrow, Would that mean we would have to trust someone else who could run with both of our monies?
Technically, yes, but there are escrowers here who have handled millions of dollars of funds in escrows and not run with the money. SebastianJu is a trusted escrow; Blazedout is another.
Here is a list of forum escrowers; I would say to only stick with the top 5, and SebastianJu.
Thank you for advice, I do not use paypal anyway, I hate the company. I once owed them 2$ due to someone reversing on me and they send debt collectors after me. Will not use again.
That's quite extreme, but yes, PayPal isn't a very great company, especially when trading bitcoins.
Great, Thank you for the escrow list. I will use one of them.
This could take some days I imagine if I were to have to send bank transfer to someones account. would this not look suspicious as to money laundering? especially from their point of view.
