Will I never learn???

[Abe]

You should think I would "know" about these things..........but Im like a hapless kid on this one.

A butcher needs a condensing unit for his walk in, I give him a price, he agrees and I do the job.

After several visits to collect money I track him down. He now says he has no money. What do I do?? I say Im taking out my condensing unit, he says I cannot. its on his property.

Do I take court proceeedings immediately? This takes a long time by which time he will have upped and gone. ( One of his workers mentioned they were moving and taking the compressor with them)

Do I go to my local police station and tell them Im going in to retrieve my compressor and would they mind coming with me. I think they will refuse citing its not police business.

Do I get 4 big lads and we go in and take it out

Please advise
