You are right Mark and if I remember right Gary C offered an escrow service once upon a time. You have done something similar it seems. And you (and Nick) are right about good names being earned over time and over successful deals. Nick is as sound as a pound in all such respects. However, as Nick says himself, if the other party won't play ball in terms of compromise suggestions there is bugger all you can do.
