At that point the US government will be involved.

A buisness friend got into a mess with a customer using US mail. I dont think he got his money back but the other person had the US after him for mail fraud.

The only other leverage I can think of besides the lawyers listed above. Is small claims court. There are limits to the amount. Here it is 7500. Maybe you could split the 11k if you sent two payments, do two small claims filings? check your lawyer options then check small claims, you would at least make your claim known before the sale. Also file against him and the company, not just the company.

Buyer and seller are both in Canada.
