This is, I guess the point I was trying to make in another thread, when all I succeeded in doing was alienating everyone.
You are absolutely right with your statement, p3aul, but if you are stating it like that, it is the absolute right of your patrons to just boycott what you are selling and go elsewhere where they can pay by card. Result: You're going bankrupt.
