Just throwing this out for those who are wanting a way to receive credit card payments without terminal fees.
There is a gizmo called The Square, it is a magnetic card reader that plugs into the headphone/mic jack of a cellphone (standard sized headphone jack only), and the software with it allows the owner to receive credit card payments for a small fee (2.75% of the transacted amount) and is linked to the owner's bank account. The payment shows up in 24 hours. Receipts (including an image of the signature as well as an optional cellphone pic of the item sold/transacted) can be automatically emailed to the buyer, and is automatically emailed to the seller. The card number can also be entered manually from the keypad. I have 2 of these, very very handy.
