I have not conducted much business here but I do a lot of buying and selling of BTC/chips on sealswithclubs.eu, the bitcoin poker site. I am one of the most trusted members there, and if asked about me in chat any user can verify that I am trustworthy. It is a very fun chat, and I barely play any poker I just use the site to play very small amounts occasionally and to mainly buy BTC when needed using moneypak. If anyone is interested in buying BTC on there with someone else feel free to call me out in chat or PM me here to escrow the sale. I escrow for free (tips are welcomed but not required by any means) and my trust and comments on sealsdeals.info (the trust/staking page for the site) prove my trust to be pristine.

None of these is actually escrow. It's more of a payment guarantee and dispute resolution. Escrow is when a 3rd party - the escrow holds both the funds and the item for sale and does the exchange itself and then sends money to seller and item to buyer. Everything else is basically Paypal with nonreversible funds because the so called escrow is basically the arbiter of disputes instead of actually being used to prevent disputes.

(emphasis added by me)There are several escrow providers on the list in this thread that offer exactly that service to those who which to use it. Note my comments in my post: You can add me to the list.
I am willing to provide escrow. For now, no fee required, but costs (such as re-mailing or bank transfer) must be reimbursed. Gratuities graciously accepted. If it gets to be a burden and gratuities are slim, I may require a fee in the future. I am located in the Greater Chicagoland Area (Illinois, USA). As of the writing of this, I don't yet have any rating, but I am registered on the OTC WOT, as well as on LocalBitcoins.
