So an entity doesn't cash the money order?

Money orders are just so sketchy, I think you can cash them at quickpay centers and grocery stores, "Hi my name is Lou Sassole and I'd like to cash this money order"
Can someone vouch for "Blue"?

Still have to show ID to cash a money order. It’s sketchy if you send a blank money order because that’s like sending cash, anyone can fill in the pay to the order of line with their own name.

Look, obviously you gotta do your homework on the seller. I'm not sure who (if anyone) is asking for money order but it's a red flag for me. Where I live there's dozens of shady corner delis and liquor stores just in my neighborhood that would %100 cash a signed over money order. It's also not hard to get a fake ID which is probably a given if you're dealing in exotic merchandise. Anyway, I'm not here to trash on anyone in particular, just stating my opinion that money orders are high risk.

He has no feedback for 10 years. You have plenty. He either ships first or no deal. That's what I do. If they say no, huge red flag.

It's always worth paying the extra few percent for reg PP to protect yourself if you're not sure. Just my 2 cents.
