I have personally delivered large ticket items for customers.

I don't
need to charge anything, I do it out of convience. Just like I would if I'm going to buy anything over $50-$100 in a store. It's a PITA to get that much cash from an ATM (my bank has no branches where I'm currently located) and even then, it would take me a couple days to do it due to the daily limits. If I was dead-set on having the card, I would have changed the plans with my family and gone back home for my checkbook. Obviously I didn't want it that badly.

If that's his business model, great. I never complained about it, I only asked the forum if that's the norm at shows.

I'm glad most of the world has evolved, I'd hate to have to carry around a pocket of gold nuggets and a scale.
