I don't mind paying the surcharge that Wyatts charges for using a credit card. They are only passing on the cost that the credit card companies charge them. I have priced parts at a number of suppliers and have always found Wyatt's prices the best which significantly offsets the surcharge for using a credit card. Also I find the quality of their parts very good. If you want a good example look at their prices for reproduction horns and tell me who beats their price.
