I sent him a check for $100 for the Megahertz Modem for Toshiba, and
never received the modem.  He has not replied to any of the email I
sent him.

If anybody else finds out what happened, I'd certainly like to know. 
Also, if anybody has any advice for handling this situation, I'd also
like to hear from you.

This is the first time I have *ever* had problems buying and selling
anything through Usenet.  But there's a first time for everything, I
guess.
