    Just stick to Paypal, or some other form of well-established payment gateway service. You effectively get similar protection.

    Personally I'm increasingly wary of "online shops" that will only deal in EFTs.

      Using the Trust account, shows the supplier that the customer is willing to purchase the goods, and is sure that the money is available, and the customer is sure that his money is safe, in that if the supplier defaults, he will get his money back.
      That's an Escrow account. It seems to be common practice in business outside SA and there are companies who offer Escrow services.
