have to say I agree... at first I thought you were going to say the guy's personal cheque bounced... I've heard of a lot worse than to end up out of pocket by $25 - especially since the retailer seems to have been prepared to 'take your word for it'
I'm sorry but disagree completely. When I pay for an item I expect to get exactly what I pay for. I don't care how big a perceived discount is involved. I also consider personally the sort of money spent by the OP significant dollars understandably adding to the stress of the transaction. Everyone, retailers included is entitled to a bad day. Just don't get ya knickers in a knot if upset customers want to detail their experience to garner sympathy.
