Default What is your recommended escrow service for domain transaction?

Hi everyone.

A buyer wants to use a third-party escrow for a transaction and wants to use a payment plan to purchase one of my domains. (not .au)

Any recommendations?

G'day mate
It was great to meet you at the Sydney netfleet gig

If not a .au then I always use escrow.com , standard service, share costs 50/50
If it is a .au, then George from Drop, while not offering escrow, does offer help

Hey Rhythm,
For au domains Liz at www.ddns.com.au or Erhan from Cooper Mills Lawyers, both offer an escrow service.

I am a regular user of Escrow.com, reasonable fees, though not many options for payments outside of the US

Try Transpact.com.

It is a UK Government (FSA & HMRC) registered escrow service, quick and efficient.

Highly recommended

Any tips on how to salvage a sale?

This is the reply I received after having outline possible terms of sale through escrow:

Quote:
Thank you, but we will be going ahead with another domain that costly slightly less. Best of luck!
After which I replied with a discounted asking price (-12.5%).

Have not received a reply after I offered the discount.

[Reason I'm actively pursuing this sale is because if it follows through, then let's just say it would have made it into the DNJournal Top 20 (assuming the buyer doesn't require an NDA)]
Telephones are good
"Just calling to find out why I lost the sale?"
