I refuse to pay with money orders, because it's virtually impossible to trace them if a seller claims "it never arrived" (yeah, right) and the fee to cancel them ($8 and up) and get your money back usually comes close to exceeding the cost of many MRR items I bid on.

But I've used PayPal for over four years and never had any sort of problem.


You could get delivery confirmation for the letter you mail the money order in for just a small charge if your that worried.
Oh, so then I get to pay a fee for buying a money order, plus another fee for DCing the letter - no thanks. As a buyer, PP costs me nothing extra.

I have had more than one person rip me off doing the MO thing - and ZERO ripoffs with PP.
