This might be a stupid question, but how do i recieve a payment by 'postal order'? How does it work? I sold a record on ebay and the person wants to pay by this method (even though i said i only accept paypal and cheques ) Thanks.

Postal orders are a goosd way to pay/sell on ebay.

Basically it is a peice of paper from the post office that guarantees that they pay you the stated amount, like a cheque, but the sender pays up front for it and you can cash it immediately at the post office once you have it.

ok cool, that is quite a good way to pay & sell. Cheers for the info.

i prefer a postal order to a cheque anyday- i get sent a lot through ebay actually.
Means you can send the record out straight away with no waiting for it to clear.

Ditto to that....and yes its a plus because what 'freak' said the records get sent straight away

what if the post office is in another country?
and if i want to sell records where can i get boxes to send them in? will they have the correct size ones in the post office.
