Well a money order DID show up! Not the full amount but there's supposed to be more later. At least there's something.
And I agree about threats to violence being wrong and counterproductive. None of that was made here. The only "threat" was when I asked him if we needed to get lawyers involved. I chose my words carefully as my only intent was to see how he expected this to play out. If he had texted back "F-ya, get a lawyer!" The obviously he thinks he can fight and it likely isn't worth my time. If he had continued to ignore me, then it would have just confirmed concerns that it was all a weird scam. He texted back and within a couple days made a payment towards the balance, so I think that shows he's likely over extended and was just dodging me hoping for more time. I understand that, but it isn't right. The whole "you get payed when I get payed" scenario is something I'd run away from. I don't see how anyone can run a business like that.
