Uh...one reason I've liked the internet for the last decade is being paid instantly for merchandise.

Even many government installations, etc no longer use purchase orders - they simply give you a Visa number - no more waiting for your money, and all the excess paperwork that goes with it.

Exactly why, as a merchant, would I want to give that up?
