Gonna hafta get one of those credit card readers for my cellphone..and a n account with visa or mastercard..that way i can take long distance orders for the boards.....that and email money transfers, but a lotta people think i can get into their bank accounts with that, which is impossible...but meh....the boards are far more fun to make ...working on a price list

tomK if you join your local chamber of commerce you might be able to get a better deal on those visa/master card rates.
I used to use paypal, it is kind of pricey (but not much worse than visa/mastercard) but it's easy and I never had to see the customer's credit card or worry about hacked websites, security, SSL s etc.

Thanks Robbie...thats worth looking into...my biggest issue right now is the shipping...the boards are varying in weight due to size and wood type...walnut is quite heavy as is maple and the boards are not thin like a lot of the commercial products...shipping costs are high...and i don't get deals the way the big guys do...

Yes, please on the price list! I love, love, love walnut, and it's SO hard to get. I can think of several people those cutting boards would make THE best gift for, including myself! LOL!

Don't bother with credit cards, Pay Pal is the way to go.

Tom,
Absolutely PayPal - credit cards, bank accounts are linked to it. Good luck! Get the pricing up ... Looks like some customers waiting
