I was attempting to buy a bow from someone on AT that lives in Missouri. We exchanged some text messages and since I felt like I was playing 20 questions, I called him. We had a pleasant conversation and I didn't even try to talk him down on price, agreed to pay shipping, etc.
So I asked, how do you want your payment?
He says, you can mail me a money order.
What?? I almost said "forget it." My opinion is if you are going to sell online, then accept some sort of electronic payment. Around here it is a little different because we could actually meet face to face and exchange cash.
I'll bet this guy buys stuff from a catalog, fills out the order form, mails in a check with the order form and waits for his product.
I'm just venting.
