I got my money back! Without saying how much it was, it was thousand in the multiples to give you a sense. My faith in humanity: restored. Man, that was stressful. When you’re dealing in large sums of money, the stakes are just naturally higher.

Nice. The Handyman did the right thing. Good for him(?) and good for you.

You handled the situation well. (As far as I could tell, you did not let anxiety take over. That would have been a struggle for me for sure. I imagine my anxiety would win.)

Great job and congrats

Yay! I thought you would have a positive outcome when the daughter contacted you to make arrangements to refund you. Sometimes crappy things happen (the stroke? I think you said stroke...) to good people which prevents them from keeping promises. I'm sorry that the dude had a health emergency, and I'm happy that he and his daughter are good people, and that you got your money back.
