(...) Yes. But those don't cash at the Post Office the way (small) PO money orders do. As a seller I prefer to receive PO MOs (although I like paypal better)... Still, the buyer's perspective may differ. (23 years ago, 30-Jun-01, to lugnet.market.shipping)

Not huge increases, but still, for those who have the info memorized... Not all (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jun-01, to lugnet.market.shipping, lugnet.market.auction, lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
