It's totally lame and the people that do it need to be spanked hard on the bottom with a Graham Gooch cricket bat. Honestly, you are basically relying on a ****e interface tripping up the unwary to provide you with an income. If you can't get by any other way, I'd say you were playing the wrong game.
Oh god Burnhard is back.
Its not really a "****e interface" when it warns you about 57 times before you place an escrow.
But back to the point, I prefer finding really good deals on escrow, rather than 0.0 ISK deals. Those are boring--I like the 6.5m dominix and the 300k carrier BPC.
Dark, just because you have Aspergers Syndrome, doesn't mean the Escrow system isn't the ****est thing in Eve. As documented in another thread, the UI is quite capable of borking your intentions all by itself. It's one thing to buy stuff that is being sold at a stupidly low price - as the seller may be quite happy to receive such a sum, even though you know better. It's quite another for the interface to throw you a curve ball and **** up your intended price, only for some script jockey to grab it at 0.0isk before you realise your mistake - and more than likely a millisecond before the signal has managed to propagate from your Cerebrum down to the fingers hovering on your mouse.
Honestly, if you are justifying the Escrow system as "good" then you are an even bigger muppet than I thought you were already. Lets see - CCP sit down and design an Escrow system - whats on the list? "We have to make it easier for scammers to operate here, it's part of the game!" - wrong - all of these scams and potential errors are bad design on CCP's part, which is why it's being completely replaced in Kali, if Hippo is to be believed.

Personally the only reason I don't like it, is because I'm hopeless at it myself, I know some people who get very rich of it and I envy them because of it.
I dare to say though that nearly everyone has made zome zero mistakes in escrows and market orders, I did
