You are kidding right? (scam alert)
Hope your bank doesn't come back and say that was a fake money order and ask you for the money back! There are many scams going around that do the same thing. You have to have a red flag go off when they ask you to send them back 2,000 change! why didn't he just send you the 1,000 in the first place. seems awfully fishy to me.
