Default Paypal vs escrow

Anyone here using escrow as a payment processor? I have heard that they are the most secured payment processors available on the internet. Anyone using them like to share their thoughts on it?

Are you talking about the famous escrow.com, if yes, than you can use their service without having any kind of doubt in your mind. They are completely safe and quite supportive.

I haven't used escrow till now.
As I haven't done any major/big transactions online.

I use PayPal for all my small/minor transactions.

Escrow is not any payment processor like paypal. It just act as middle man and keeps the money with then until the service/product is delivered

Although paypal has a very bad customer service and very high service charges, i always prefer paypal simply for the reason it is widely accepted and can be converted to my local currency easily.

I have never had any issues with escrow. they act as the middle man in a transaction and take a fee. just like paypal in some situations. they are all the same and they all take to much of my money, lol

I use PayPal for $1000 transactions all the time. Anything over $2k - $3k and your going to want to look into Escrow. However this really depends on what product or service is being sold. High value = Escrow, Lower Value = PayPal
