What I was saying to that poster who basically pleaded with the OP to take the $4500 loss so that everyone else can still play the game, is thats NUTS and I highly doubt that if that poster was the OP that they would suck it up as a cost of doing biz w/o having 1st tried everything to recoup the loss.
Ive yet to see 1 post where anyone who wants the OP to suck it up offer the OP a donation to offset the loss and no one most likely will and understandingly, but then dont tell the OP to accept the loss and not ruin it for everyone else
Sure it wasnt the smartest move on the OPs part, but the milk is already spilt now the OP needs to do what they can to save as much of the milk as possible.
I dont know of anyone on FT that would suck it up and say Im willing to accept the $4500 loss for doing a dumb thing rather then try everything possible to get it back, even if it meant killing the golden goose for everyone else. Each person would try anything and everything to get their money back
If it was me Id call my CC and ask them what would happen if this occurred, if I would be covered in any way.If yes then Id dispute it if told (as I personally think) SOL when it comes to cash equivalents then I wouldnt
