When dealing with private parties and money or money orders in the mail, I 
have resorted to requiring the sender to use priority mail with delivery 
confirmation.  Without a way to track payment & with the delays of the mail 
service (the two reasons I love paypal)  it is too easy for someone to say, 
"well, I mailed it, tough sh*t."  If a seller only accepts money orders (no 
paypal) then I SEND my payment via priority mail w/delivery confirmation.  I 
know the WE TIGHT crowd is cringing at paying $4.+ to mail a piece of paper, 
but it gets my payment to the seller in 2 days & I can prove that the seller 
received payment.
