Seems like a simple fix now that you know for sure the man you trusted did do the right thing. I agree I would have just done the transfer through the bank and forget about checks.
The sad thing about this is how fast folks here condemned the seller as a thief and scammer. Says a lot about what we have come to now days.
It's not sad. It's just a statistical probability that it's very likely now days to get ripped. You are right that it is what we have come to. In the old days I could also ride my bicycle 5 miles through the Detroit suburbs to buy go cart parts from someone with a classified add on the Detroit news. Now days you risk getting you brains blown out if someone knows you are carrying cash. It's too bad, but it is what it is. I basically dont trust anyone. Show me first. Business is business and I always make sure it happens in a way that I'm 100 % guaranteed that I'm not getting ripped off.
And that's not a sad thing to you? I was just making the point of the way people are now compared to when we could trust others.
No, It's just normal now. I'm just saying peoples responses are because it is what it is. It's just normal to expect stuff like this.
Hold on....I'll be right back...I have to answer an email from nigeria about sending a check to a guy. He has one heck of a deal for me.
I just got the $3000.00 dollar check in the mail for the Headers I sold on Craigs list for $150.00. Guess I need to wire him back the difference tomorrow and wait for his transporter to pick them up later.
You don't have to wire the money back. Just get it in cash and give it to the transporter.
