re. Credit card fees (NAC!)

[Ben Swann]

Mike,

I have had no problems with anyone using a check or M.O. when they buy
something from me - of course I probably don't have anywhere near the volume
that you do.  When someone uses Paypal, I often ask them to cover the
surcharge, as I give them the choice to do check or M.O.

I generally prefer to pay by check, unless it is a fairly large Merchant -
Tire Rack, Sears, etc. and always like that green paper stuff.

I could not afford to have the kind of overhead you mention, and personally
don't like overhead and recurring costs like that.

This is a non-Audi question.

The reason I am asking it here is that I know I'll get some honest answers,
and the Audi list happens to more or less fit the customer profile of the
people who will be affected by my decision. (Vehicle enthusiasts, mostly
male, and willing to tinker.)

So the question is this - If you were buying an item which costs about
$25.00, and your payment options were Paypal, send a check, money order, or
cash, but NOT Mastercard, Visa or Amex, would that discourage you from
buying the item?
