Your bank/credit union should be able to cash it.
I don't see a problem with that.

I received a Canadian pink money order for an EBay sale...

Any idea how to cash this, or is it pretty worthless to me in the U.S?/

Is it a AN INTERNATIONAL POSTAL MONEY ORDER in U.S.? I love those. Any post office will cash it on the spot with proper I.D. You canship the item immediately. The bank will also cash them w/o a problem.

By the way, the post office will cash ANY INTERNATIONAL POSTAL MONEY ORDER IN U.S. dollars right there on the spot. You just need your identification.

Can't find "International Money Order" on it anywhere. Just states "Postal Money Order" and "Canada Post".

Thanks for the replies. I'll try the bank tomorrow...(I tend to panic over stupid stuff. This threw me off

)

I have cashed plenty of pink Canada Poste postal money orders at my bank, Bank of America, over the years, you should have no problem with yours atall, as long as it's in U.S. funds........

It should have a"US" before or after it, to state that it's in U.S. funds........

Many banks are PITA's with these. They simply don't like to fool with them and use all sorts of excuses to not cash them. First time I tried they toldme it was fake.
Just to be cantankerous whenever I get one I take it to the bank just to have them decline it.

Take it as noted to the Post Office. Thats the easiest. It's fine.
