Need a ruling: Should I pay?

[CEO]

Is he the kind of guy that could be scamming you for the price of the tickets? Maybe never really had them......? Most likely were bought with credit card....not cash and he should be able to show proof that they were purchased. If indeed they were I would offer to split the damage with him. I have cousins that I like a lot but............don't think they would scam me for that amount of money.

I wouldn't imagine in a million years he'd be trying to scam me. He said tickets were bought with cash in person so no digital trail.

Stupid tax.............

Lol. I have some cousins I'd give $70 dollars without question to and some id ask to see the washed tickets and still wouldn't.

option a) I would offer to pay... expecting him to turn it down... if he takes it, hold it against him the rest of his life and make sure you mention it at every family reunion how he screwed you out of hard earned cash!

option b) if he bought his tickets as well but didnt wash them, tell him "actually... you washed YOUR tickets, bring me mine

Kidding... I would hope he would say to you not to worry about it. best thing to do, in my opinion, is to ask him what he expects you to do about them.

I would tell him I washed the 70.00 dollars and its no good now. Lol.

Don't say that..... Could be considered money laundering

I bet if he has a receipt and explains the situation most of the time they will be able to get new tickets!
