I was thinking something like a reverse of the normal escrow. The seller places the bitcoins in escrow and the buyer has to send payment through mail, WU, or etc. To receive those bitcoins the seller would confirm that the buyer sent payment. SR can take their cut from the seller as per normal and both the seller and buyer(if the have proof of delivery) have some kind of protection against scams.
P.S. - Watch how many sellers would finalize early. My guess, NONE!
Edit:
Just noticed my idea is very similar to this topic here but less complicated. http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=7444.0
