Here's the story...kinda E-bay related so I put it here....
Anyway, in early January I won an Amiga CD32 from a guy in Canada. Total was somewhere in the $90 range. Went to a Charter One bank to get one of those spiffy international money orders. I had the money drawn from my checking account there. Plopped it in an envelope, sent it off. Week later, he e-mails me telling me he got everything and sent the system. Check my bank account and I still have the money. Get the console about 2 weeks later, check my bank account, and I still have the $90. I E-mail him to make sure everything was OK with it and he told me he cashed it the same day he got it. Well, 2+ months later I still have $90 extra and have finally figured that someone screwed up and I'm in the clear. Certainly not something I'm willing to dispute with the bank! ;)
