Re: [Harp-L] quick quesiton

The ability to take credit cards (paypal being a "low level" entry) will definitely boost your orders. This is fact amongst anyone involved in retail sales.

You can upgrade beyond paypal with a little investigation on your part as to very inexpensive credit card acceptance plans - don't go through a bank, but through one of the many independent companies offering this service. Believe it or not, many people ready to pay with cc will balk at a paypal site in which you have to enter more info than usual or have a paypal account. Consumers love entering only credit card #, expiration date (and sometimes the 3 digit security code) for orders.

I've 
been thinking about getting away from using paypal due to the fees and whatnot 
so I was wondering if it would deter folks from ordering harps and combs if they 
didn't have the paypal option and had to send a check or money order.

I just had a quick question for all the fine folks on here. I've been making and 
selling harps for a while and I wanted to get some feedback from the group. I've 
been thinking about getting away from using paypal due to the fees and whatnot 
so I was wondering if it would deter folks from ordering harps and combs if they 
didn't have the paypal option and had to send a check or money order.
