I guess both users missed this part of the Local board rules. I trust you for trade but if it's a paid escrow then it's not allowed on the Local board. I want the board to maintain ONE FREE escrow service.
Why? That is up to the buyer and the seller and not you will decide that. Be it that I collected money or not for the service, nothing was included here than for reference purpose.
If your escrow service does not follow the community norms and goals, it is not a good look. The local board regulations prohibit
paid/multiple escrow services, and no one opposes you running a paid escrow service, but you must use the right service board for that. Any member who is not satisfied with the community's FREE escrow service may deal outside of the local board without creating a reference thread here. I have had financial dealings with you, and I am not doubting that. I'm just starting out with the Rules that we all agreed upon. No reputation is mentioned here.
The parties can go ahead but the community will not be responsible for any loss, damage.
I trust you to do the right thing....
