Well, he won’t take it back and doesn’t communicate anymore. I cannot think of any other options. So I figure I’d let people here know about him if they ever deal with him.

Yeah, since he was an OSO guy I gave him benefit of doubt. Stupid move, won’t repeat mistake. It’s pretty embarrassing seeing people act like scum.
