Use a BANK Money Order
An alternative to a US Post Office money order is to use a bank money order drawn on your bank. It is treated same as cash but, if it should get lost, your bank can cancel the money order and refund your account.
Check with your bank to see what their policies are, first.

I agree with VE3TMT. Why would anyone buy from someone who sends in an ad like that? That is just asking for problems. If someone spells like that, there is a good chance that the e-mail that you send will be confusing to that person. It might not be intentional but a few red flags should have gone up on that one. It does have a happy ending though, and that is the main thing.
BANK MONEY ORDERS
Most banks don't sell or issue money orders drawn on the selling/issuing bank.
What you get is a money order issued and supported by a third-party payment service. Just like a money order bought at a currency exchange.
The terms on the money orders (expletive deleted) ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU HAVE TO USE THE U.S.P.S. TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE ISSUER/SERVICER. YOU'RE GENERALLY REQUIRED TO WAIT 30-DAYS TO GET A REPLACEMENT/REFUND.
CHECK THE TERMS BEFORE YOU BUY!!!

CORRECTION -- BANK MONEY ORDERS
The thrust of my comment was:
KNOW WHAT YOU'RE GETTING AND READ THE FINE PRINT!
No form of payment is perfect in every situation. Each payment has its unique drawbacks and limitations.
