Money Order-Can to USA?

Recommended Posts

Hi guys, I will send a money order to a member on mods, I just want to make sure that no problem happens with the transfer of money over-seas.

I'm asking this becaus ei heard some compagny doesn't allow money order oversea. I just want to make sure.

Which compagnie is the best for sending money? have insurance or tracking number? Canada post?UPS? Fedex?

Thanks!

Idk what country your in right now or where's it going. But I do know that the United States Postal Service has international money orders and it's like only $4 or something to purchase one. I see no problem with using that and sending it via UPS or Fedex so you can get a tracking number.

you can send an international money order easily through your bank. i used to use them all time for sending money to the states. don't worry about shipping it via UPS, etc. normal canada post will be fine. if it gets lost in the mail you can just tell your bank and they'll void the MO.

When I used MO's I bought them from Canada Post. They were $4.25CAN for the MO itself and then the equivalent of the US$ you're sending in CAN$. You pay for postage and send it off. I've never had a MO lost. However I have had a friend use a Canada Post MO for an eBay transaction and get scammed. I use Paypal now, haven't gotten scammed before but it's alot cheaper and faster too.

Yup all the boys have it right.

1. PAYPAL

You can set up a Paypal account, but many sellers avoid it because not only do you pay a service charge, they get dinged as well.

2. CANADA POST U.S. MONEY ORDER

Go to your local Canada Post outlet and they can set you up with a U.S. money order. They're cheap and cheerful.

3. YOUR BANK

Go to your bank, but you actually have to walk into one, and they can set you up with a Canada Post like money order in U.S. funds.

Cheers,

Go up to the counter at Canada Post and ask for a US$ Money Order. They'll ask you how much do you want so just tell them $30US. I'm not sure what you mean by insurance. I always sent my Canada Post money orders by regular mail and they've all arrived successfully. However the lady at Canada Post has said that if the Money Order hasn't been cashed, she can cancel it and I'll get a bit of the money back.
