A financial expert would tell you that BidPay at http://www.bidpay.com
is a much more secure service.  Plus you don't maintain an account where
they play with your money (read: profit from float), nor do you pay $5
everytime you want a cash withdrawl. Correct me if I'm wrong, but only
BidPay accepts international orders.

Downside of BidPay: the very first time you use them the service can be
slower than the buyer and seller would like.  BidPay assumes the
financial risk (unlike other service which can REVERSE your credit card
order on whim). They do the credit card validation checks, of which
there are many in this age of credit card fraud.  Once the money order
gets issued to the seller, it is a 100 0one deal. That is reassuring.
