Most banks and credit unions can call a central number and instantly verify the USPS money order - can't do that with all the others. Having said that, I don't buy much anymore if that's the only pay option - I'll be 70 in a few months and no matter how healthy I try to stay, statistically my survival odds suck if catch Covid. Not going to wait in line in our little podunk PO's 10x15 counter room - not enough room even without 'social distancing'. Personally, I think it's kind of arrogant to demand PO's as the only pay option - yeah, that's right up there with all those folks who can't take the time to learn how to post photos.
