Questions


 
What is an Inspection Period, when does it start, and how long does it last?

The Inspection Period is the specified amount of time agreed upon by both parties in which the Buyer may examine the merchandise/domain(s) after receipt.

The time frame selected for the Buyer can range between 1 to 30 days and must be agreed upon by both parties at the beginning of the transaction. The Inspection Period begins when the Buyer marks the item as received or Escrow.com confirms the merchandise/domain(s) has been delivered to the address in the Buyer's escrow profile. The Buyer must accept or reject the goods within this period. If the Buyer has rejected and returned an item, the Seller will be provided with 5 days to examine the merchandise.

Buyers and Sellers should make sure the inspection period provides adequate time for any authentication and/or appraisal process that may be necessary to complete the transaction.
