This is not a personal flame..just some thoughts on selling items....all IMO
If someone sent a late-payment check to a seller, _at the very least_ the
seller should tell the buyer "I'm not selling you the item because you sent
payment too late and I'm tearing up your check" 3 weeks is not an outrageous
amount of time. A good seller would return the check to the buyer if he/she
is not going to sell them an item the buyer sent payment for, even if the
payment was sent 3 weeks after an agreement was made. It is not very nice
practice to have a check you sent someone floating out there never having
been cashed, never receiving an item, and never hearing from the seller.
