If you paid by credit card you can cancel payment on the basis you never received the goods. Otherwise, you've probably done your dough.
Caveat Emptor!

I was just on your website:

http://www.angusj.com/sudoku/hints.php

when you replied to my message! Very interesting!!! I like the way you described x-wing. I understand it for the first time!

The PDF that I got to download was not what I expected. Yes, it was over 100 pages but a lot of it was the "history" of sudoku and VERY basic solving techniques. The last 4 or so pages had some interesting links....but nothing that I couldn't have picked up here at www.sudoku.com

See the thread at http://forum.enjoysudoku.com/viewtopic.php?t=2110 - I tried the puzzles in his "newsletter" and it turns out that 2 have multiple solutions and one is unsolvable. My email to him was returned (mailbox full). I'm extremely suspicious.

Kinda funny that he gives you a year to ask for your money back, since it actually might take a year to get ahold of him.....

I actually might be persuaded to "share" some of the ideas from his PDF file.
