Very tough thing to do when someone buys something, mailed and then no payment. Trust is a big thing out there. When it fails do we out the person when they fail to communicate or just think to ourselves we screwed up to trust anyone? I can forget as well as anyone, but after multiple emails or Face book messages what to do. Outing on face book, who would want that, especially when you know the person.
By the way it is not a old gas member now.

Only thing I'd say is make sure his health is ok and he's not in the hospital or something.... but if he's healthy, I agree that it is total disrespect to not talk to you and I believe I'd out him..

Craig, I agree with Tom. See if you can determine if there is something wrong on his end, out of town for a family emergency or something like that. If he turns out to be a non-payer without any valid reason or excuse, out him and maybe prevent it from happening to someone else. In any event it sucks that you have to deal with this. Good luck.


Regards, Jim

Totally agree, as a guy that takes a lot of payments from collectors, sometimes it's circumstance. That being said, if you can see they are active and just avoiding you, you gotta call a spade a spade, and it's probably not the first time......
