Posted By: <b>Brian Weisner</b><p><BR> Your Right Tom,<BR> Unfortunately very few people including dealers realize that it's illegal to pass credit card processing fees on to the customer. I still see Ad's in Scd each month that quote a 4- 5% surcharge for credit card purchases. I have contacted several of these dealers and not one of them thinks this law applies to them. Remember when gas stations used to have a cash price and a credit price? Gee I wonder why they don't anymore, because the law says they can't. later brian
