Both friend and I trusted the bank we had dealt with for years would of been certain when they contacted buyer's bank the Cashiers checks where good. There excuse was the other bank didn't know the check had been copied until it got back to bank. Of course, bank will take no responsibility if will cost them.
My friend sued, but I don't know how he came out in court. I do know he lost a truck behind the deal.
I went another way, got my trailer back, and sold again as several years newer.
It's not a question of "trust". Banks operate under rules that they can't violate...and no, if you deposit a bad check and the rules allow, they aren't going to eat the loss.
