Title: Escrow .inc protecting your trades
Post by: FRANK_THE_TANK on September 25, 2011, 07:59:26 am
Hi guys

A lot of people seem to be getting ripped off lately.

Its no good for anyone, it gives mods a head ache and causes everyone greif.

Escrow .inc is going to try and fill the gap and provide some protection for people trading serious stuff.

Here is what I am offering.

For 1k from each party Escrow will check and clear transactions.

You send your item/gold to Escrow and your trading partner does the same and then Escrows passes them onto you.

If your worried about getting done over by some shady cat then do buisness through Escrow .inc.

Feel free to PM about anything Escrow related just banging it in the header.

Cheers guys

Without Escrow providing collateral to both parties he's dealing with this could potentially be a fairly awesome scam.

Never heard of this guy, it would be the same as trusting a stranger, which is stupid and naive, which is how everyone else got scammed.  :lol:

I like how he slips in the 1k processng fee. Personally I would have asked for 10% of the value of the item, but then I am a greedy bastard.

Yeah I know, no street cred. Didn't quiet think the post through before I did it. Just seems like a good idea.

I play in oz and am not on forums much because our comunity is so tiny and the only things that effect us are battle related. We have strat server that just sits thier idle. I doubt that it will ever get used.

ANYWAY! totaly off topic.

I should have tryed to build it up before I just blurted it out.

Are there any members that have good cred that would be willing to try and kick this thing off?

Eventually chadez or someone will create a simple solution, like being able to sell the loom points themselves. But until they do people are going to get a fat penis in the eye. There is money to be made in charging the trading parties for some protection.

It would also make a fat scam, HUGE scam if 2 people just handed everything over to some one and that person wondered off with everything have. But you would hope that the douche bag that did that would eat the ban hammer like a boss.

This post is horrible, sorry, I'm at work and only have a min to bang it up before I return to my lack of internet.

Can't someone just write a bot that does this and then it wouldn't need any escrow fee? Can't be that hard...

I have to applaud what you're trying to do here, you see a demand that needs filling and are trying to make a little cash on the side. That being said, I'm not sure how you'd go about getting getting this scam racket con enterprise off the ground, but I wish you luck (or that the devs work an escrow system into the marketplace).

 :D :D :D On a side-note, I am now accepting donations for The Croaker McGee Coffer Fund.  :D :D :D

The devs could simply make an heirloom point an item that you could sell directly, that would make my little (attempt at an) operation irrelevent.

The other reason I'm trying to do it is to get my Strat clan off the ground. Since I play in Australia I can't rely participate in strat but if I have a sort of trade/UPS based clan then I can still play a part in it to some extent and maybe hire mercs to break walls for the clan.
