I recently (last week) sold a mac laptop with the check or money order 
verbiage in the description.  No repercussions.  I repeat.... Ebay 
cannot prevent you from accepting cash or Nigerian scam checks if you 
don't tell them about it.  That said, they did once pull an ad which 
specified cash as a payment medium ( I had revived an old ad template 
and reworked it ), so I suppose they might get around to it.
