That Sucks Mike,
Remember when I was accused earlier this year of never sending a $1000
payment to Stefan Ralew?
I sent a money order and apparently it never got to Stefan.
I have no reason to believe that Stefan received the money order. But he and
Martin Altmann accused me several months later
I run into this a fair amount as well and it is a tough decision, the cost
of a customer versus the cost of the lost parcel.
I believe it is not on you to refund the loss but it may be worth doing in
the long run.
My largest loss was $750.00 and I refunded it and still lost the customer.
So, I go
Let's get something strait now. Almost every customer in Europe wants their
packages to declare "NO VALUE" "GIFT" "For scientific study only" etc, to
avoid customs. Except there is a problem with that. When you declare no

It's too bad that you didn't save the stub (receipt) form the money order.
I've had two different people (both list members) claim that they never

I guess what it all boils down to is you have to decide if you're a
