If you actually escrowed the money, and he wouldn't then I'd think he was actually in the wrong. Obviously once the money is escrowed you both can determine a certain amount of time to find arbitrators(not from this site). Say, like, 1 week after escrow is received by both. If both parties can't determine 3 of them after one week, Druff also should agree to return the money.

This is your chance. You can either make up and excuse, and say something about Druff taking too long, but I think if his word is on the line, he would make sure it got done in time. He obviously has no bias against you. I personally would have shipped the money to Vegas(I did), and Druff is actually willing to even let people decide if you'll be paid. He could easily make the right decision, and just pay vegas whatever you're owed. He's actually being quite nice IMo and I'm sure many others.

This is your chance to clear your name, and if you honestly think you have him angled, then go for it and pony up the 500$. If Druff were to reply to this with a yes, let's do it, we would either finally realize if you've just been trolling this whole time, and never had any intention of paying anything. Or vegas will be the one who crumbles under the pressure of a bet he agreed to, and it should be wiped clean.

Just my opinion
First off, this was a bet between 2 guys. Why does the onnus now fall on one party and one party alone to do make it happen? Everyone is clamoring for me to ship Druff $500 and is acting like that is the end all to everything. If Vegas doesnt do so in 48 hours my name is cleared, blah blah blah. If anyone truly believes that then I dont know what to say to them honestly. There is no fucking way that Druff holds my money for 48 hours and then my name is miracously cleared.

The real question here is why wont Vegas agree to escrow? Im not asking him to ship to Druff first, all I am asking him to do is merely reply saying "jsearles22 if you escrow, i give my word that I will escrow within 24 hours." Thats it, thats all he has to do. How hard would it be for him to agree to do that? He has been here on a daily basis, he replies to other posts, yet he seemingly cant type out that one sentence. Why is that?
I actually logged on this morning to do just that.

Jsearles, I agree to escrow Dan Druff $500 within 24 hours of you doing so.

I spoke with him late last night about this and he agreed to hold it for both of us. The ONLY thing that has held me back from doing this over the last few months is that I know it is going to be a giant pain in the ass to find legitimate "outside judges" to hash this out. This has been an angle shot of yours all along knowing it is going to be very difficult to agree on who we choose to do this, but I am fucking sick and tired of you using this as your out as to why you haven't manned up and paid off this debt. Time to shut the fuck up and get this done and over with.

Ship your $500 to Druff and I will do the same.
