At a craft fair a few years back, we were offered a not unsubstantial oak hand made coffee table, ours for £250 if we could take it away there and then. I give him my card details, and he tells me he'll do the transaction once he's back in his shop on Monday. I take one of his business cards, every-one leaves happy. Monday rolls around, no transaction, in fact nothing at all that week, phone of Friday Morning the phone's unanswered. Tried a few more times over the following weeks. Nada.. Still not paid for it.
Is there a time limit on these things?
