So I was wondering, I was looking through sellers and I saw a character that would only accept sales that have been escrowed. To avoid embarrassment if it ever comes time for a buy, how exactly would one go about making their transaction meet this sellers requirements? Is there a built in service in SR or are we supposed to use a third party bitcoin escrow service?
I tried to utilize the search function, I was unable to find one that answered this so I hope I'm not repeating a dead thread.

Escrow is automatic in SR. So when you buy from that seller it just means don't say something like "Hey can you do me cheaper deal out-of-escrow". And it means the dealer wont ask you to Finalize Early.
It basically means the dealer is playing by the rules...
No effort required on your part.

ah so to do it the way he wants, i would just do it normally and not try to do anything special?

Exactly. Just dont finalize till you receive the package and possibly even wait till you sample the product.

so if i get a dud of a product and just disappointed with it fully, i don't even have to send my money? this sounds so much better than my friendly neighborhood street merchant.
