This happens way too often now where a buyer does not complete the deal. I am not referring to those that make offers and then disappear. I can’t really chase people when I don’t even know who they are.

I am referring to escrow transactions where buyer and seller agree to terms but payment is never made. From my understanding in these cases escrow will release their info if requested.

So, is it fair to post details of those who fail to complete transaction?

I think they should be called out so why not. They entered into a deal then backed away which isn’t right.
 
In what kind of way would you post their details? Hall of shame type of way, here on DN.ca?

Pretty much….No point chasing them legally for a domain sale. At least to prevent others from going through the same hassle.

Or do you just let it go and move on?

I definitely like the idea, and I’m curious to know, but I’m not sure if I would personally want to bother. Might be bad karma for you, despite the fact they screwed you over first. Hard to say what their situation was too, but if the same person was doing it again and again just to mess with you then I think I would put them on blast. Lol
 
Could always share the stories with some but not all personal details being disclosed too.

Could also consider taking them to small claims court if you have all their real contact details. It’s meant to be a simple / public-friendly process where a lawyer isn’t expected to represent you. You can claim up to 25K in some provinces, maybe more now, but it’s for “smaller claims”. Definitely a lot easier to do if you’re both in the same province.
