Ripped off

I'm not getting pissed I'm getting frustrated because I would like to find the part and or get the insurance money. I did not pay the extra money and not be able to get it due to him not wanting to help. Both of us need to help each other Altho it don't look as though he wants to help me.

Not that I'm trying to moderate this - I'M NOT. But ply30, if 68dodge paid you $65 for the part and didn't receive it, would you be willing to guarantee him that you will refund the FULL $65 back to him IF he helps you collect the $50 insurance from the postal service? I can understand your hesitating to refund any cash if he's unwilling to assist your efforts with the post office.
