Over a 12 month period, 4% actually works out to a lot of additional realized revenue.

IMHO, as sales are so hard to come by in the first place, I think that a checkout fee may be a darned good way to put off many potential signups.
Remember that we are damned lucky in the first place to be able to charge for the things that we do and the % of CC fees bothers me not in the least. I mean by doing IM you do not have to maintain a brick-and-mortar facility, you can, if you're smart, hide tons of your income, work only a few hours a day after you are set up and running, you get to look at beautiful women all day long and if you are lucky, fuck a bunch of them, so why rock the boat?
I think by charging a checkout fee we would lose more than we gain, this based on many years in retail, around 17 yrs in IM and the last six or so in adult. Look at it from the consumer's standpoint because the consumer is who signs up with you.
