Re: ripped off.

You can sue for the amount of the check and punitive damages for fraud.

You should sue the buyer. If it is for under $7,500 go to small claims court. Email me at [email protected] for my free ebook on small claims court.

If it is over $7,500 you should talk to an attorney about suing the buyer.

Good luck.
