I see no problem if you feel that you can trust this client. My 2nd to last major client had me extending him credit (to the tune of over $11,500 in 6 weeks) by crying cash flow problems but didn't bother to tell me he wasn't going to pay... That's not someone you want to extend any more credit ... and I didn't... :-)
