I think the real issue is whether the merchant should be allowing the card to be used in credit (signature) mode for this type of transaction. Sounds like a training deficiency.

For example, here are the rules to purchase a USPS money order:

14.2.3 Purchase Method
Money orders must be paid for in one of these ways:

a. In U.S. currency and coins (in any amount).

b. With established traveler's checks payable in U.S. dollars if the purchase is for at least 50% of the value of the traveler's checks.

c. With ATM/debit cards at locations approved by USPS Corporate Treasury where the customer's personal identification number must be entered on a keypad connected to a credit/debit terminal.
