First Spear Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 At the risk of gross generalization, is it safe to say that vendors at PGRE (especially the Intellivision ones) take credit cards for purchases? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+evg2000 Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Some do, some don't. I don't take CC, I will sometimes take PP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Tarzilla Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Based on 2015, bring cash. Many take only cash. The bigger ones take cards, but some will tack on an extra 2 percent. I can't speak for the Intellivision specific ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+cmart604 Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 I know for a fact that Rev will ask for payments in nudes but remember you don't have to do it. But you can. If you wish. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Bring cash. But I may look into CC transactions. When I went to the last 3 comic cons near me, the past three years. Everyone pretty much just did cash. Its easier. Well unless you are cashless. Ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freewheel Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Bring cash. Many of the tables are just people like you and me, selling off parts of our collections. I know that I don't personally have the ability to accept credit cards at my house. Some people may be cool with PayPal'd money but I wouldn't count on it. There are ATMs all around the area (and probably inside the convention center), so getting cash shouldn't be a problem. Usually I go with a coupla hundred bucks, and if I find something really big - like my Neo Geo AES last year - I ask the guy to hold onto it, and run out to an ATM. Never a problem. BBWW only accepts payment in parking garage favors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+SoulBuster Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 I am set up with PayPal to accept cards and will add 3% to cover the fee. It costs nothing to get started or to maintain and they send you swiping device for your phone or pad for free. I will also accept Regular PayPal payments (+3%) and of course cash. No Checks, sorry.

+Lathe26 Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Bring cash, but there will be a handful of people set up to take credit cards via Square and PayPal Here. The headphone jack readers are dirt cheap to free (other readers cost more), but there is a ~3% fee per transaction. While it is easy to get set up with either Square or PayPal Here, not all sellers feel like it is worth the effort. The one time I was a vendor at Seattle's Retro Gaming Expo, I was set up both Square and PayPal Here. However, every single customer chose to use cash. Though I spent getting both tools set up for credit cards, neither was ever used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+BBWW Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 ah, now I understand why he is so ambiguous about the price of the games I would like to buy from him... Like my other thing of importance I have to find it before I can play with it...let alone price it....and it looks better in the dark.
