Paying someone with a money order??? Well, let consider:

* you have to go somewhere to get the money order
* you have to pay a fee to get it
* you have to find out the seller address (a couple of emails - but time is money nevertheless)
* you have to pay for postage to mail it
* you have to wait for the money order to get to the seller
* it may get lost in the mail
* the seller may say it got lost in the mail if he changes his mind about selling the item
* you have no good way to know when seller got the money. At best you may know when it get cashed but this is not straightforward.
* now a BIGGIE: the seller may pocket the money and never send you anything or send a wrong item. You have absolutely no recourse when paying with a money order!!!

You would have almost none of those problems with PayPal.
