I hate to read that some of you have been taken advantage of when trying to purchase a car. I've been told by some dealerships that they didn't accept any CC payment and that's fine, but those who told me they would accept a certain amount and no more were prompty educated as to what their merchant agreement says.

My most recent vehicle purchases came to a total of $112,346.53 and every penny of that was charged to my card.

Don't be fooled by the salespeople...they rarely know what they're talking about when it comes to the car...nevermind their merchant agreement.
Are merchant agreements generally posted in the CC website?
