The buyer chose to pay via bank wire, and three days later a reminder was sent out. On the fifth day, the funds had arrived and I was instructed to push the domain to the EscrowHill managing account.<\/p>\n<p>Due to apparent language problems, the buyer appeared to be less communicative, and they were instructed by Andee Hill&#8217;s team on how to proceed with the creation of a GoDaddy account.<\/p>\n<p>The $5,000 sale completed and funds were released yesterday. Despite the fact that incoming bank wires arrive from a New Zealand bank where EscrowHill is incorporated, my account reflected the transaction just a day later.<\/p>\n<p>The cost of Premium Escrow at EscrowHill is more affordable than at other competing services that offer such an option, and I will use it again in the future. As a domain seller, I&#8217;m very satisfied with the pure domain escrow service, as well as the personal care with which Andee Hill manages every domain transaction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve been using EscrowHill as a domain escrow service for almost two months now; having documented my first sale to a domestic domain buyer, it&#8217;s time to share some info about an international sale as well.
