    so-called friend owes me $310 for a ticket..

    so i have asked her a few times if she can come over, drop the money. then this week I hear she is going overseas for a holiday (to LA for a shop till u drop holiday) and was gonna drop over the money but then forgot and had a migraine and she was flying out the next day.

    Personally, if I owe anyone any money whether its $300 or $30 bucks, I always pay them back straight away.

    This is just plain rude and ignorant.

    It was for a bon jovi ticket. If she does'nt pay me, I'm taking my 13 yr old.

    I would definitely make sure she paid before handing over the ticket. That is just rude.

    Why cann't she just do a bank transfer into your account? That's what I'd be asking her to do - whilst telling her that I really 'need' the money (don't have to say what for).

    definatley rude!
    but is she likely to still pay you when she gets back? she might be thinking that she doesnt HAVE to pay you until the night...

    This is totally rude. I'd take your 13 year old, I know the principal of the matter is that you bought the ticket in good faith on her behalf and she hasn't paid you for it, which is totally inconsiderate.

    I have a "friend" that I leant $300 to before Christmas so she could pay her rent (she works casual and had been sick), we're now in August and I've still not seen a cent of it, yet she can afford to take her kids on holiday, go out drinking, get a new phone......
