The old guy who ran the hardware store in town was more than famous for that kind of thing if he ever billed anybody at all. Dad worked for the school district for a lot of years and they'd go in there to get things for different government funded special projets. It took him so long to send a bill that the program would have run out and there was no money to pay him.
After he died his son and daughter remodeled the store. A cousin's husband did a lot of the work. He said when they started moving things around back near where the old counter had been they found checks from as far back as the 50s that he had dropped and never looked for.
I remember I was in there before he passed away and he told me I had a bill there. Got it out and it was for an electric fencer from two or three years earlier. I honestly didn't even remember not paying him,barely remembered getting the fencer.
Dad got a well pump from him one time. Keith didn't know the price right then,told him to take it,he'd have to look up the price. Dad said he kept asking him about it everytime he went in there for years. Finally stopped asking. I know full well they both went ot their graves without that bill ever being paid.

So I went into the house and wrote him a check for $500 and bought them myself and said now they are mine.
