The fees add up, and they make a decision to keep my prices down by not having to cover the higher fee you force them to pay with an Amex, so to me that is a good business mind.
I agree. I don't understand avoiding restaurants because the owners seem to look cheap by not accepting the card. I think it looks quite practical. Just make it clear which credit cards you do accept for payment.
