I personally won't buy from a seller unless they accept paypal. I got burned a couple times with money orders. So now if they don't accept paypal I move along.
Well, with "international" purchases it sure would help the buyer out
Honestly when you contacted me I never even realized you were in canada or the trouble I would have sending you money over the border. I guess it's one of the drawbacks of me living out in the sticks.
Someone once told me you can receive a payment from a paypal account without having an account. They use your email to contact you. Never tried it though.
Bob, if you didn't live out in no-mans land, you can also pick up international money orders at most post offices. You do have post offices, right?
Paypal is easiest usually, and keeps you somewhat secure.
