    One thing that no one has suggested is that it is an actual, genuine, mistake on their part.

    Many years ago I went to pick up a computer part that cast £400+.21p (I remember the 21p).

    I put the money in an envelope and I would have sworn that I put the 21p in there.

    When I haded it over and the seller checked it there was no 21p.

    I was extremely embarassed.

    Very good point. I am always mortified if I think I've given the wrong amount!

    I've contacted the buyer, and have left the ball in their park so to speak.
