SEE POST #37 FOR THE RESOLUTION OF THIS.
I've been running my scotch buys here for over 5 years and have never had an problem until now.
Back on 12/05/09 Chris wanted to know if I could get him two bottles. Since they were hard to get and had some long lead times I told him I would order them but he would have to make a 50% down payment.
On 01/18/10 I told Chris the bottle were on hold and now is the time I wanted the down payment, He said it would be mailed the next day.
On 01/28/10 I told Chris nothing had arrived as of yet
On 01/29/10 Chris said he sent the check late
On 02/01/10 Check arrived
On 03/06/10 I told Chris that his bottles would be in within the week and that he has to pay the remaining amount due. He replied it would be in the mail the next Monday
On 03/12/10 I sent out a reminder about payment that hasn't been read as of the time of this post.
On 03/22/10 I sent out an email saying he would forfeit his down payment if he didn't contact me
No contact has been made and he has not logged on since 03/10/10.
My questions to the esteemed members of CP are this:
1.) Do I keep his money and eat the remaining cost of his items?
2.) Do I keep the money and try to sell the items at the asking price making something for my aggravation?
3.} Do I keep the money and try to sell the items at a discount thereby breaking even?
4.) Do I return the down payment and eat the cost of this whole fiasco?
