Personally speaking I wouldn’t do that. I haven’t done it.
However...one of the MOST annoying aspects of purchasing equipment on A’gon is the 3-4% “fee” most sellers, individuals and bricks and mortar retailers alike, tack onto their merchandise classifieds.
In the past I have tendered offers on classifieds with the caveat that I don’t expect the “fee” to be included in the final agreement. I have sold a fair amount of stuff here and have never levied a fee like that. And I won’t.
When B&M dealers on here state extra fees for credit cards and/or PayPal, I have to wonder if they would have the audacity to try that if I walked into their store. Really? “Thank you sir, and now I must add 3% to the total because you’re using a credit card.”
That is total, utter B. S.
