It's alright guys I understand the concern. I'm just going to deal with ebay one this one.
I get that I only have a little positive feedback on this particular forum (more all over the internet) people have concern but I paid for the unit before I received it and whoever buys this will have to pay before receiving it also. I'm not willing to get scammed. I'd rather leave it behind and work a deal with a friend to run it worst case scenario.
Thanks everyone for their bids and input.
Your scenario for escrow sounded fine. I swear this forum gets dumber by the day. It really just sounds like the forum "kids" are trying to pull a fast one, don't listen to them please.
Have a nice day, don't take anything these guys say seriously they have no fucking idea what they're doing.
Not just this situation but many others on this forum make absolutely no sense to me. I am offering the fairest price on this machine even after I paid an outrageous amount to have it over nighted. Yet people don't want escrow to have anything to do with confirming so I don't get scammed.
As far as the "don't give escrow everything" concern, if you are worried he will steal you probably shouldn't be using them as an escrow in the first place.
