I give the buyer access to my code etc. for a set time


Personally as someone who has used escrow/com previously, set the time to view to 1 day - otherwise they can reverse the deal once having changed DNS and trialled your traffic....and taken your code.

We got stung by that one on a 3 day view - luckily all turned out ok in the end.

We didn't lie about traffic, we didn't lie about anything to do with this website - but the buyer was convinced traffic was higher and wanted to play with the code etc.

He cancelled - although he picked up the cost for the cancellation fee.

Just a small warning - and as previous poster has said - it's not a UK company so legal recourse would be a nightmare. Protect yourself first - personally for a large transaction - I would use a solictor and their bonded account.
