I never thought about calling Amex to see if the checks had been cashed.
Well it turns out that they had been cashed, but they could not tell the
exact date. I promptly email the seller back to let him know what Amex had

hours and still no response. The guy has 500+ feedbacks, so I would hope
that this is an error on his banks behalf.
