I contacted him as per I have a 10 meter mobile for sale, I advised him to send me a postal money for payment,
he sent me a personal check instead, so I advise him I had received his check, and would tell him when the check cleared and would ship radio. check bounced and my bank charged me $10, I sent him an email asking him to call me so we
could correct the matter, never heard from him again!

also, I did an fcc search and he apparently does not have a license?

Mr Gamble finally responded, doesn't seem to know why it bounced, says he will send money order.

Only Rodney Gamble I could find was KC7IUP.

You might mention the state, address, etc.

I hope you charged him an extra $10 for your
bank charge for the bounced check!

If it had been a large purchase, I would have waited
for his check to be PAID, not just CLEARED.

There is a HUGE difference between a draft (money order, personal
check, bank check, etc) being paid and being cleared.

And %99.999 of bank tellers don't know the difference, so don't wait in line,
go straight to the Bank Manager's desk and let him/her know what
you want: Notification when that draft has been PAID.
The bank has a YEAR to come to after you for the funds if later
on the document is found to be fake and you were given the
money order or whatever.

And the bank will just take the money out of any account
you have the balance in to cover that amount.
Be careful, even if it's a bank check, Walmart money order,
whatever.... and especially if it's a credit union money order.
There are a lot of good forgeries out there.

Another case for the use of "PAY PAL ONLY" and wait till it is in your checking account about 3 days after you receive it!!
