Subject:Money orders to pay for services

It seems obvious that if you cash the money order before you send the
product it is a good way to pay for services. Some people still avoid PayPal
and credit cards that are instant, but each to their own method. I prefer
paypal because it is instant and accepts all credit cards, but I accept
personal checks, and money orders and ship only after I cash the non
preferred method of payment.

The problem with money orders and certified checks is you have to spend the
time to go to the bank or post office, burn the gasoline to get there and
back and go to work to earn the money to pay for that gasoline, wear and
tear on your car, and money order fees-- all these hidden costs to cover the
paranoia of the buyer who won't get a bank account or sign up for paypal.
