NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

Right about a couple of weeks ago I purchased this amazing Dreamcast deal off Ebay (I just wanted to restart my collection, you know), and I sent my cheque over to them (£46.05). Two weeks later (today), they said that the cheque DIED on them. In what way do they mean DIED? And now I'm worried they have cashed my money because they havent returned it yet.

What a bunch of absolute t**ers.

Fair enough - apology accepted.

I can understand you feeling frustrated - get your dad to check his account and if the money hasn't gone contact them again about payment.

Okay, you're right, I'm sorry and I apologise - I'm just overreacting. Its just that I want this Dreamcast so bad, and its just been a very long time, and I've just got nothing to do, so I've been waiting on this. I know its not very interesting, so sorry.

If you posted the cheque it would've taken a couple of days to get there; they post it to their bank - a couple more days; the bank takes at least 3 working days to present the cheque - if there's a problem then it'll take at least a couple more days for them to send a letter to whoever it is; they send a letter to you ... you get the idea?

"Watch my mouth" ... ? Or what exactly?

No, its just that they have kept that cheque for an extremely long time, and then they just reply today so that I have to wait even longer. Its not a case of me being a '****', so I suggest you watch your mouth, mate.

Maybe you filled in the cheque wrong? Maybe it bounced?

If you don't know for sure if the money's gone and they've got loads of good feedback then chances are you're being a **** for nothing - check things before you go around screaming and moaning like a little girl.
