2004 BYOAC Tokens SOLD OUT!!!
JustMichael:
What some merchants do to get around this is offer a "cash discount" when you pay with cash or debit cards.

Actually I believe the no surcharge law expired in 1984, however, these states have banned surcharges with state laws.
California
Colorado
Connecticut
Florida
Kansas
Maine
Massachusetts
New York
Oklahoma
Texas
Visa and MC regulations prohibit surcharges and Amex doesn't explicitly prohibit, but it discourages it and prohibits it when a merchant accepts Visa and MC as well to keep entry barriers from affecting their business.
But as already stated, the loophole is to offer a discount for cash.

I have a merchant Paypal account and can accept credit cards.
MrBond:
Just throwing this out: If you really really wanted to pay by credit card you can buy a money order by credit card through www.payingfast.com. I have done this in the past and it worked great. Registration is free, but for the $43.50 tokens/shipping, it would cost an extra $3.95 to use their service.
BASSOFeeSH:
I have my checking account hooked up to paypal so it's not a problem, but I just want to make sure I understand.
If I have a paypal account & transfer $$ to you AND take the funds from my credit card, then YOU get charged?
