I recently bought an item on e-bay and mailed the seller a money order for the amount. They just e-mailed me today saying that they recieved my payment but that the m/o or c/c was not included. I know for a fact that it was in the envelope. What can I do? Am I just out the money? If they got the other two pieces of paper but not the money order; that were all in the same envelope, what can I do?

If you have proof you sent it,set up a dispute with ebay,they were very good with a similar problem i had. Good luck.

First you need to CANCEL the money order! Report it as lost so that if it was indeed lost no one else can cash it. Also this will keep them from cashing that one and an additional MO.
Did you keep the receipt that comes with the MO? That is your proof of payment. I would not pay them again, you might need to contact ebay to settle the dispute.
BTW, Money orders and cash are bad news on ebay for this very reason, get a (free) paypal account, they keep you update with online receipts and they let you know when the seller receives the payment.

some human beings advertising issues on ebay do no longer know what they even have. So if a shopper gets it cheap and can resell it for an more suitable value by ability of itemizing it and describing it exact, greater ability to them. They deserve the money for understanding their stuff.

Don't you ever pay with money order when buying on Ebay..!! Use paypal that way you are 100% sure you will get your money back if you don't receive your merchandise or any other problem... Sounds to me you just got scam...

Contact the Post Office (or wherever you got the money order), they might be able to track it and see where it was deposited.
