Title: Looking for escrow provider who accepts small trade
Post by: EvenMoreNoobs on March 10, 2021, 09:23:04 PM
G'day

After contacting few of the providers in the escrow topic ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=855778.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=855778.0) ), I got few replies about the minimum fee or minimum trade where the fee is (almost) matching the trade amount.

I spooted a good deal on BitcoinTalk, so I'm trying to be careful in buying from this guy, he has no vouches.
Need one who accepts small amounts of escrow. I'm buying from him the amount of $200 only (eq. ~ BTC 0.00366).

Please let me know who accepts such escrow criteria.

Cheers

Try reaching out to bL4nkcode (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=765632), if I'm not mistaken he still offers escrow services.

But just a warning, no escrow will protect you if you end up buying stolen keys.  You may not get scammed by the seller immediately, but you'll have no recourse if the codes stop working two weeks from now.

If the good deal is for digital products, there are several risks:

 - Buy stolen or illegal cards: Your account will be frozen and then you will face some problems as you are the one responsible for that card.
 - Buy cards that have been resold or obtained through discounts: Usually, those cards will not work with you or have country-related restrictions.
 - Digital problems: The card may be legal, but sometimes many problems may arise. escrow may not prove these things or it may reveal your identity.

As for BitcoinTalk escrow services, the topic that you mentioned is old, use https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2439910.0

Yea, OP could choose someone from there since the thread creator updated the thread on January 13, 202.

Anyway, since OP creates a public thread so scammers or impersonators would send you PM for escrow services. Just make sure the original person from the above list talking with you. And quite more dangerous is telegram contacts. Don't contact on telegram before verifying the real escrow from here and must verify Bitcoin signature before final deal. Everything should happen via forum PM to avoid scams.

Thanks guys, I ended up not buying the product as I've checked each of the offers made for that product and the sellers safety rating which didn't impress me.

Anyways, still looking for a trusted seller for what I'm after, but thanks for your advice.

If there's no seller you can create a WTB thread or something similar on the marketplace board. If you just post it here I doubt you'll get any progress on your search.
