I am open to escrow, but I don't know how I should structure it, since these are pre orders that require hashfast to ship to me first in November. If you havea good idea for escrow I'm certainly fine with it.
Hi ineededasername (LOL BTW),
bosag3 notified me about this. I can escrow any of your Sierra sales at-cost. I'm an official Escrow Affiliate at BTCrow.com
I usually charge 2% for this service but since he's a friend and a business partner I'll only charge 1%.
For anyone else interested, I can also extend my Escrow services at BTCrow at the same rate for these Sierra Buyouts. I've performed a HashFast Baby Jet Buyout before, in Round 2 of our co-op's activities. The semi-automated escrowed buyout was set up in such a way that the buyers and the seller were protected throughout.
The process is/was:
1) An escrowed transaction was set up at BTCrow (or use one's particular choice of escrow service)
2) I provided an email address to BTCrow for the invoice to be sent to for payment
3) I paid the buyout price and 1% escrow fee
4) The seller received notice that BTCrow received my payment
5) The seller notified HashFast of the buyout and my forum name
6) I contacted HashFast with the seller's permission to change the shipping address
7) Once HashFast confirmed the shipping address change to bobsag3's pro colo facility in Missouri, I manually released the funds.
It sounds difficult but it's not that hard. It goes something like this:

Which led to a round of inexpensive GB upgrades for our Round 2B:

To all: please send me a PM if you'd like me to coordinate an escrowed buyout of one or more of these Sierras. BTCrow holds all escrow funds and provides 3rd party dispute resolution for up to 120 days, post sale.
The buyer has full control of when escrow funds are released to protect their BTC.My response time for escrow transactions is 24-36 hours. I've vetted 9 or more GB Coordinators and/or miner hosts on the Group Buys forum, and run the most active Miners Cooperative on the GB forum with about 60-70 members on 4 continents and 2 island chains.
