For those of you running retail sales sites.

Don't ask me for my CC info until I know EXACTLY what the costs are

e.g., including shipping. Bailing on an online order because they're asking me for CC info before they tell me the total cost. Not smart.

He's asking if you are thinking of a particular site you were just at that tried to collect your CC info before the total - he's not very fluent in American English ;)

Victoria's Secret.

I phoned it in instead.

But that brings up a question: I thought there was no tax on interstate catalog orders but they're charging me tax.

Well, this popular hobby web site will ask your credit card details before they tell you the total costs.

Not only that, they threaten to do things with your credit card if you upset them.

But who cares, they are highly successful anyway.

Im sure they meant it as a joke but as im customer who has never dealt with them and is worried about credit card security.... I think ill go else where.

What a stupid statement to make on their site.
