Sorry, the auction did sell. I don't accept money orders because I have had people win auctions and then never send the money. With paypal, I'm guaranteed to get paid and get the money right away. However, I do understand your hesitation. I haven’t used this camcorder in almost 3 years. Since then, I got a camera that does video. The quality is decent and doesn't require tape. Maybe you should look into something like that.
