any joy with gathering foot ?

Yes, it's hard to avoid being stung once in a while. For me, it was a local merchant. I found out that the Better Business Bureau is not much help, and it's about the only place to turn when you've been foolish enough to pay cash.

If he's not underfoot, it's all good.

BBB is a joke in my opinion. They 'take reports'... ...period... ...full... ...stop...

They did a teensy bit more than that. The shop owner wasn't a member, so they had no clout with him, but they wrote him a letter outlining the complaint and asked him to respond. He did. He said "tough sh**." They told him they would keep the complaint on file and make it available to anyone who inquired about his business. Within the next six months, he sold the shop and was gone. I doubt my complaint contributed to that, but probably his general business practices did.
