It took 5 minutes. And besides I don't know about you but I'm not willing to just throw around $1000-$1700 without doing a little research.

I dont have excel either. So saving post entry fees, a free membership and a day to day discount is not worth it?

Now back to the topic -- for me, the biggest issue right now is this 5% for using your credit card. If every business charged the customer back for CC processing fees, I don't think anyone would use credit cards. 5% in the grand scheme of things isn't much money to begin with, but it's a matter of principle.

This is MY opinion, not the opinion of SBA Admins, members, whatever... but I think it's BS.

So what if we paid them in cash at the bike show or something. Plus 5% on 1600 is a nice pice of change.

I originally selected to pay by CC but called them up afterwards to change to pay by check which they said would be fine. I never even saw the 5% surcharge disclaimer since its at the very bottom of the screen.. If you fill out the application, and "scroll" through the entry fields using the tab button, when you get to the "submit" button, the disclaimer is never shown on the screen. I generally look for caveats like this, and it really should have been posted where the rest of the other disclaimers are listed (efp, transferring days, cancellation policy, etc).. They have a whole paragraph dedicated to such things, why not include the CC surcharge there as well? Doesnt really seem to make sense, and if I didnt know them and think they were good people I would say it was done intentionally...
