Postal money orders are OK BUT there are no guarantees that you will get your
item if you sell on a newsgroup. Been there done that. Got burned for $140. I have a friend who is a postal inspector and says for a few hundred dollars it's not worth their time to prosecute. A postal money sounds like it's the best because of the protection.Well, that's wrong. Unless it is a LARGE amount. Paypal is wonderful. NO WAY can a payment be stopped after it is sent. UNLESS, If he sent an e-check to the PAYPAL account and she shipped before it was cleared, He could cancel it before it was cleared. You are supposed to wait until it clears before shipping! I myself once paid someone via paypal and made a mistake with the amount, by a LARGE amount. I called paypal and they said there is nothing they can do at this point. The return must come from guy who received the money from me. I e-mailed that guy and he sent me the difference via paypal the same day. Just my .02 cents with experience in postal money orders and Paypal. Good luck!!!!!!!!!! Lou wrote: As do I! I have accepted Pay Pal a couple of times, but for the most part, it is Postal MO only!

But then again, it's no worse there, When I sell something on eBay it is USPS money order only. Upon receipt take it to the USPS, cash it and once I have the money in my hand I ship the item with a delivery confirmation to the buyer. -- Best Regards, Keith http://kilowatt-radio.org/ NW Oregon Radio Page |
