Wow! What an idea! I have to believe that in this day and age that some
technicians somewhere are set up to accept credit card payments. The
process to get set up is simple enough. I did it once in another
business. You should be able to call the credit card department of a
major bank and tell them what you want and they can fix you up. The
biggest downside is that every transaction you will be charged a fee
which is I believe is 5% of the total. The upside is that this puts you
in a position to offer credit sales  without any further hassle. 

I am far from being an ezpert in this area and there may be some other
pitfalls that I am not aware of, but what business does not have some of
these? it does make sense to talk to the credit card people and see what
they say.
