This seems like such an easy way to do it plus it protects you from charge backs since it goes to F/F account. I have used this method and it always works.

Mike--I am not sure if I am the dealer this person is talking about---I did have one collector who didn't have the cash and wanted to use a charge card, I don't take charge cards since I only do a few shows a year---I did offer this collector paypal , but he doesn't use paypal---when somebody pays me with paypal, I give them the card when it gets to my account. I also take checks (if the person has good references I give them the card, if not, I wait until the check clears and then mail the card to them. And yes there are times I do lose a sale because I don't take credit cards. I also believe cash is King
