That's cool, I just don't participate in ANY establishment that had their reader charges me to buy with a card, I pay cash of check and leave my money in my pocket. Again, I don't care who gets it. You bet your boots I'm a grown man and I know really well how it works. That's how I got to be where I am today.
I hear you. Just turned 64. I was using the internet back in the early '80s when you had a black screen and a flashing cursor. Everything was done in DOS commands.
I'm fairly confident that most normal men, and even women understand....however what is being "sold" here is that the card companies pack the charge....anyone with a brain cell understands that the credit cad companies charge a "fee" my wife had a retail store for many years....she processed card payments daily...what is being "sold" here is that the card company back charges the fee to the consumer, when actually the seller simply states a cash discount, then adds the fee to the charge...so, the processing company/bank is not doing anything else that processing the charge, which the merchant has added the 2.5% fee, or what ever it may be to the charge....It's not rocket science....so, you buy the gun for $500....the seller has already stated that the price is a "cash" price, you agree to allow the merchant to add the fee to the charge, which increases the actual charge to $500 plus the fee...so the charge comes in at the increased amount nothing done by the processer, all done by the merchant....You've been crystal clear. I am honestly a little flabbergasted that grown men don't know how simple commerce works.
