The Seller isn't paid until the Buyer accepts the vehicle, or the agreed-upon inspection period expires. If there is an issue with your purchase, you can return the vehicle to the Seller and have your funds returned to you from your escrow account subject to the terms of the General Escrow Instructions.

Sellers

The Seller is notified to ship the vehicle after Escrow.com verifies the Buyer's funds. After the Seller provides their tracking information, Escrow.com verifies the delivery of a trackable vehicle to the Buyer. Escrow.com ensures that the Seller receives their funds once the vehicle is delivered to the Buyer. The Seller is also protected from any unexpected chargebacks.
