So he told you he had sent the engine but didnt have a tracking number and then got the engine back from the "depot" before sending you your money back in an envelope.

What doesnt add up to me and if you are reading this Demondave maybe you can explain.

If he paid the engine person/company and then got the money back from them it must have come back to a credit card/account somewhere yet he said he cant transfer yuo the money as he is overdrawn.

I have sent a lot of stuff from here to UK Passionford members. The most important and only thing that proves it was sent was a tracking no. of some sort. I always provide the recipient with one as soon as I have posted it and also ask they let me know when it arrives. To not be able to provide you with one is very odd indeed.

To then post the cash back to you which must have come from somewhere (an account of some sort, that could also have been used to transfer it electronically to you) is insane

I noticed on the other thread someone knew Dave. Can that person get the info off Dave for Johan if he doesnt have net access. Way too many things out of sync for normal postal communication.
