Here's a wacky idea, thake it to your bank. Put it in the bank and let the bank put it through the system. It works every time for me.

I've had numerous sellers that wont accept bank or credit union MO. A lot of people want a USPS MO because they feel there's less chance of bogus, or fake MO.
I always have MO checked at my bank before cashing or depositing them.

I go down to a local WINCO supermarket and get moneygram money orders for .40 centavos.  Never had a problem, the store prints them off in front of me.  In fact I'm paying off my CPA with them and Gail has not said a word.

I've been selling firearms for around 30 years and prefer USPS money orders, which are very hard if not possible to counterfeit.  I definitely prefer them over cashier checks, some of which are relatively easy to counterfeit.

I've never had a problem with a bank or credit union accepting USPS money orders and will ship a firearm immediately when receiving them as payment.  

Cashier's checks are a different story.  My bank says it can take up to 10 days to verify a cashier's check, which is BS in today's electronic transfer world, but I do wait at least 5-days prior to shipping.

BTW, neither my local bank or credit union will accept Canadian Postal Service money order but I did recently cash one at the local Post Office with no problem, although the teller did mention that the amount had to be less than $200 due to the limited amount of funds they had available.

I sent a usps mo to Boomer moulds in Canada and he could not cash it.  He returned it and i sent a personal check as we have done business before. I had to cash the mo out at my bank after some hassel at the post office and found out that you could get a special usps mo for Canada.
