I guess BTC could be used but not sure how to handle the second 50%-
I suppose this would be up to what payment methods that the manufacturer supports and the person doing escrow is willing to handle.
If the person doing escrow can't do wire transfer that would rule them out.
Correct, also all the buyers need to be protected from fluctuations in crypto as pointed out. That is why I suggest Wire but ultimately escrow can make that decision with the community if this comes together.

I want to be 100% transparent. As per the OP I have offered philipma1957 $100/unit or $5000 to do the escrow service for this deal. If he accepts he will post here himself. DO NOT SEND ANY MONEY OR BITCOIN TO ME OR ANYONE ELSE. If you receive any correspondence asking for money it is a scammer
