I had a buyer send me a check and forgot to include shipping. I emailed him immediately and he said he will send payment, that was March 12, I just sent another reminder.
Should I deposit the check I have, what if he never sends the shipping, should I eat the shipping and send it(I did make a good profit) but shipping is $6.35. Should I hold his original check until and if I receive the additional money?

I always hold the check and wait for the remainder of the payment. Send them a reminder about every seven days until they pay.
Don't ship the merchandise until they do or you may never get the total due you.
In 2 1/2 years this has happened to me several times.
