Did some work for him, started to look shady, so I finished up right away. It's what remaining on the invoice.

Put a mechanic's lien on his house. You'll get paid in 5 years when he goes to sell it.

Ah, gotcha. Kind of an awkward sum, too big to ignore too small to lawyer up.

Basically. If it was 500$ and just labour I would have written it off. But materials etc in it now.

I figure there should be a tradie credit score database for this kind of thing. If someone refuses to pay, log the incident, and the next guy they try to scam can look them up and see if they're worth the risk.
