Our US Post Office is the place to get Canadian peach-colored postal money orders cashed. They aren't too cheerful about it, but their getting paid so F them.

Fongolio is a trustworthy buyer and can be expected to perform as he states.

    You're welcome! I still "owe you one" for the stroke yesterday. I don't mean a freebie, I mean a deep scratch on the best song of the next good piece of vinyl you buy from me. It'll be advertised as "shiny pristine" but I'm gonna gouge it for you.

    Then we'll be back to square one.

    Thanks for the help!

    Sounds fair George. Now, I've been looking for a shiny pristine copy of William Shatner's The Transformed Man......

    Moral of the story, don't go anywhere near a US bank with a foreign money order. With Royal Bank if I want to buy something in say UK, I just write the pound sign in front of the value and they pay out in Pounds give me the best exchange rate and a modest fee.

    Had to bank wire $200 to Royal from here and those thieves at Bank America charged me $40.00

    I am not sure that is the case. I have sent many MO is US currency from RBC and the person at the other end was never charged anything. Perhaps this is for Mo outside the Chartered Banks.
