If you bought it from Walmart it is GOOD!
I get my Money Orders at Walmart all the time.

max,
DO NOT pay any way other than PAYPAL with a CREDIT CARD!
it is the best protection on any internet sale. you have the option of filing for a CHARGEBACK should something go wrong, your item never shows up, it is fake, etc...
"I dont want the person Im sending the money gram to think its a scam or something like that."
you should be much more worried that the seller may SCAM YOU!
use a CREDIT CARD!
being new, you need to learn how to protect yourself.

never buy from a seller with less than 98.6% feedback, always check the feedback,
don't buy designer items on ebay, 90% are fakes.
steer clear of buying from ASIA, too many scams there.
learn how to spot a HIJACKED ACCOUNT!!
never bid on anything that seems too good to be true! IT IS!
