Hey Chris, if your going to quote our prices, it would be nice if you would get them right! But then, why should we expect that?
For those who don't know, credit card companies not only charge you interest on outstanding balances, they charge companies that take credit cards a fee that can range from 2 to 3% plus an authorization fee. Some companies charge it back as a CC convenience fee, others handle it by raising their prices which only makes more money for the CC company. If you have no overhead, like running your business from your living room, you can probably afford to swallow it. If you want to avoid the fee, send a cashiers check.
If you don't, we split the fee with you and call it handling.
I’m not a big fan of CC companies and I don’t like to see them make any more money then their services are actually worth which is pretty close to zero in my mind.
I apologize if this thread has had a negative down turn. It started with a simple post about arranging a group buy with FWD (see post 1). We happily participated and even worked it out so there would be no minimum number of people who could benefit from the low price. Our competitor just can't help but try to bait us into a spat and distort our offerings. We certainly can't sit back and let them put out information to the public that is blatantly false.
I hope you can appreciate our position.
