I don't have phone numbers, but I'll be dealing with Florida on Monday.<BR><BR>As expected, the U.S. Postal Service is a real long-shot.<BR><BR>A friend of mine recently collected about $200 using a local Florida consumer complaint department - they were very persistent. Even though the guy used a fake name on his web-site and for his company (selling c.d.'s that didn't exist), they still tracked him down using a dog license application! Then they hounded him until he sent the check. <BR>
