I wouldn't want to impugn anyones personal preference - and we each have our own. I'm just thinking that if I was working on a guys car - and it was going to be 1000's of dollars - and sometimes that much in one month... and he starts laying out a Visa... I'm going to be real real suspicious of whether or not that can really afford what he's doing.

There are - of course - many reasons why people use credit cards. We use our Alaska Air Visa for lots of big purchases - for the miles we rack up... and all our on line stuff if I can't use PayPal.

But these charges cost the business a fee and I don't think those fees are built in to many shops labor charges. Maybe I'm wrong. But I could certainly see why a shop wouldn't accept it.
