I think Chappy is in the US, no?
That's a terrible policy; probably to try to dodge the 'markup' from the CC =
companies (what is it, 2 or 3% the CCs tack on?). At any rate, I have to be=
lieve that much (most?) of their business comes from the US; they may lose m=
ore money than they're paying the CC companies. FWIW, I ordered a (backorde=
red) steering column from them a year or so ago and they took my Visa.
