BUY AND SELL WITH POSTAL ORDERS : eBay Guides

Postal orders are a good way of receiving money as they can be treated like cash - no lengthy delays while cheques clear or bounce. For the buyer, sending a postal order should ensure they receive their goods promptly. UK sterling postal orders can be cashed at the post office or banked like a cheque.

For security you should write or print the name on the order and have it crossed. Remember to keep your reciept.

They can also be cashed at post offices of 47 different British Commonwealth (past or present) countries around the world. What's more they can be purchased in some of these countries for example; Singapore, Malta, Trinidad and Tobago, and if you ever wanted to sell to Gambia but thought it was too dodgy, just say you will accept a sterling postal order.
