When I go to a show I either bring cash or assume that I will need to make a trip to the bank if I find a card I really want.
I have had a dealer let me send the money paypal ff for a 1,500 card at a recent show.

I've never had anyone not take a check. Even if the person doesn't know you in advance, you chat a few minutes, you find you know people in common who will vouch for you, the person gets comfortable with you and realizes you are not about to start a life of crime by bouncing a check for his card. This is still a people business, or should be.
