Why do you have such an issue about using escrow ? You seem pretty defensive about it which sets off massive red flags.
I have no problem with escrow. But who/what holds the escrow is a problem. I am my own safest escrow as all my contracts have been honored. My history/feedback clearly shows I am
not a scammer. Why would I trust somebody else in this community where "leaders" have been the biggest scammers of them all?
Having a huge post count, early registration, and some kind of elevated status doesn't mean shit to me.
I was attacked, and labeled a scammer, for merely mentioning I do not want to use escrow nor waste time with 0.0000001 increment bid trolling. Not to mention the accuser (supposedly) has 2000 shares of his own he's trying to sell:

You make a big deal out of not trusting others (and rightfully so), but it seems odd since you turn around and expect others to trust you (and react this way when they don't). I wouldn't trust some dude on the internet with $10k+ based on a rep composed of selling video games either.
Maybe if he offered 3% a week and had a shady name.
I don't see why you should trust anybody either though, I wouldn't on either side of this. You're probably gonna have to find a better way to conduct your transactions if you can't find a go between both parties trust.
