PayPal does not charge anything for a refund. Also returning a check includes postage and envelope have to cost .53 plus man hours. That is ~1.5% of the $40.00.

For those that think it is easy to establish a "GUN " organization account with Pay Pal----think again . When the account was established for the membership side of the PGCA , there was a tremendous amount of manipulation and time spent to get it approved and set up . Question----Who is going to take the time and effort to do this ??

Another question----Who is going to manage the account ??

Another question-----Who is going to write the programs that will be combatable with our web site ??

I am not saying it is a BAD idea , I am saying that the BOD/Staff of the PGCA are volunteers and to add additional responsibilities onto those that already give of their time , is something to consider !!!

Additionally----the PayPal fee is great than that mentioned and is ,if I recall ,an additional fee for those outside the United States .

I kind of like Bill Murphy's concept ---I like it the way it is !!!

you can keep it the way it is for people who want to mail. but for others like me it can be set up like the membership sign up. I haven't seen a problem with that from our volunteer's. I was just thinking out loud, This does not have to be done just thought it would be a good idea, I do know people don't like change and yes this would be change. I just think it would sell more letters. scott

Maybe we could talk to Craig Larter at the Southern and let him tell us how the AHFCA does it. I get a card copy in ten minutes from AHFCA, and realize that there is more information that must be processed from PGCA than just the scanning of a card. However, I'm just letting our readers know how it is done over there.
