Can anyone advise if Escrow.com is a good and "safe" way to facilitate a transaction between myself and a USA based purchaser
of a car from Down Under
Open to any suggestions for a "safe" option for both buyer and seller who are unknown to one another.

I used them years ago for a multiple six figure transaction.You're good.
Hello,
My name is Louie and I am a customer service representative at Escrow.com. I would be more than happy to answer any questions you may have regarding our services. You can reach me directly at lborrego@escrow.com. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Here is an overview of how our service works;
Once you have registered with Escrow.com, you will be able to create a transaction. You need the other parties' email address to setup the transaction. Once terms are agreed upon, the buyer will be prompted to send payment. Once funds are secured, Escrow.com will instruct the seller to ship the merchandise. When the buyer has received the merchandise, the inspection period (as defined by both parties in the terms) will begin. Anytime during the inspection period, the buyer will need to login to Escrow.com and either accept or reject the merchandise. Upon the buyer’s acceptance, Escrow.com will disburse funds to the seller. If the buyer rejects the item, he/she will need to ship the merchandise (at their cost) back to the seller; who will then have a five day inspection period. If the seller accepts, funds will be returned to the buyer less Escrow.com fees and return payment method. If the seller rejects the merchandise, both parties will have 14 days to come to a resolution. If a resolution cannot be reached, both parties will have 14 days to choose an arbitration service.
Sincerely,
Louie Borrego

They probably have a programmed search to notify them anytime their name comes up in a thread.Originally Posted by Kaleid

Have you priced a nice GTV lately? Not Porsche S money but decent early T money.

Considering the forum, I thought you might be interested in this short interview our president just did with Hemmings Radio.
