Hello,
I've sold hundreds & hundreds of bikes online, and my experience tells me that if you've got someone with trust issues, they generally don't get better. I don't use, nor can I recommend an escrow service.
If your prospect doesn't trust you, he doesn't trust you. It doesn't get any better than that.
The way each and every one of the transactions I've done works is simple...and have been perfected through trial & error. First, terms are agreed to in writing. Second, customer sends (wire transfer usually) funds for payment in full, which is verified. Title is sent via overnight delivery to customer, and the arrangements are theirs to make for pickup. Haulbikes.com, funtransport.com, and keyboardmotorcycletransport are three shippers we've had good success with.
Any suggestion of an alternative to that wouldn't be acceptable to me.
If you have a nice bike, you'll find a nice buyer for it...hopefully someone that deserves it. Good Luck, and you can certainly PM me if you have any questions.
