There are a lot of counterfeit Western Union Money Orders floating
around. I would not take one under any circumstances. IF you clearly
stated USPS Money Order in your listing the guy hasn't got a leg to
stand on, and I would expect any fraud involved would by on his part.

I think USPS money orders are if the Postal Service in question has a

Since you don't know my current circumstances, you're in no position to
suggest what I should do or that I should take a WU money order. I asked a
specific question about eBay, and got enough answers to better understand
my position there. Anyway, the payment still hasn't arrived.

Unless they have a two-tiered pricing policy, the USPS mo's are 95-cents

You're right, I have no idea where I got $1.50 figure from, it was stuck
in my head for some reason. I use my atm card to pay for USPS money
orders and the fee is low enough that I don't really pay attention.

BTW: I wouldn't rule out the possibility that the buyer is just being a
prick to try to negotiate a price reduction (partial refund). There are
a lot of sleazy buyers who try to use the fear of negative feedback this
