Contractor burned me on a payment and I still think about it 2 years later

I did a full set of custom maple cabinets for a guy in Madison last spring. He loved them, said they were perfect, then hit me with 'I'll send the check next week when I get paid by my client.' Still waiting on that $3,200. The thing that gets me is he knew exactly what he was doing, he even asked for a slight discount for 'cash flow reasons' while driving a brand new F-250. Has anyone else run into this kind of smooth talker who makes you feel dumb for trusting them?

Did you get a signed contract or just a handshake?

That F-250 probably costs more per month than what he owed you.
