I sold a pretty big ticket item ($750) on another forum and took a money order for it. I have heard of people getting scammed because they just took the MO to the bank and shipped the item and then the MO bounced. I can take it straight to the post office, but do they generally have enough cash to cover a larger money order?
Also, how long do I have to wait to be safe if I take it to the bank?
