Or at least make a deal with people and tell them up front that their links are guaranteed for 1 year or you will give them "x" amount of money back, after 1 year if you sell the site you can't promise anything. Thats how you do good business. You be upfront with people. What you are doing is acting like a fucking clown.
My biggest issue is that he knew he was going to be selling/dropping those sites a week later. It's one thing to get in a jam a couple months down the road and have to sell some sites. It's another to sell hundreds of dollars worth of links to a site you know you are getting rid of in a week.

It's only $240, but there seem to be a lot of people who have similar stories to me. When all is said and done, it could be in upwards of a few grand this guy has swindled from people on his "permanent" (one week) links.
