This is tricky. One worries if by stopping new orders, you are basically kissing your $60k goodbye or "altering" his willingness (as Greg wisely points out), or making it very difficult (read: expensive/legal) to collect.

But being the bank in addition to the supplier is a dangerous business... if your business is not being a real bank.
