duh? last years in-colors

I've got a question....yeah, I feel kind of stupid, but I just don't have a lot of experience with postal stuff between Canada and the US. If I sell some of last year's in-color cardstock to an American, how do I take care of the payment? Short of asking them for a money order, is this the only way for them to pay? The only thing I know is it can't be a personal cheque, right? What about a certified cheque? (whatever that is).

Maybe I'll get a Canadian and all will be easy!

I've got some CoolC to sell and will be putting it in the swap/sell area, but wanted to at least make sure I knew what I wanted out of the customer. (e.g. how they were to pay me).

what about paypal? they do conversions and such...

You can use paypal, and I know I have taken payment from Canadians with money order, they just have to write US funds on the MO. Maybe it works the same way in reverse? I would think so....

I would use PayPal......it's SO much easier! I've bought and sold to Canada a LOT and this is the way that I do it.

Ask someone at your Canadian bank that you use. They might know some way that would be easier.

Thanks girls..I don't have PayPal. I suppose I could just open a sale (I only have 3 packs) to Canadians and that would simplify matters. Just wanted to give everyone a chance to get some Cool Caribbean if they missed out. I know I will use some of it, but not 4 packs, which is why I want to get rid of the other 3. I am hanging onto that Cranberry Crisp. Still gonna work for Xmas cards!
