I'm sure RCS needs to take credit cards now since they will be selling all of the Aerotech stuff.

Worthy of front page press release on ROL?...gimme a break. Lots of rocketry businesses decide to get merchant accounts, big deal. Besides that, Gary already was able to take credit cards previously under the Aerotech name, so I'm sure it was no big personal hurdle or accomplishment.
Wahoo everybody...Gary switched his merchant account over to RCS!

Is there some other, more pressing rocketry news that should have been there? If not, what's the problem?

Humm, I know it was not the $13 a month for the merchant account keeping him from doing it.
It must have been the cost for setting up a real website shopping cart on the RCS domain. Much more costly.
So, since very few probably ordered RCS parts, compared to Aero-tech motors, it probably made no since to e-enable the RCS website until the revenue stream came in to make it worht while.
that would be my take on it.

A lot of small retailers pay for inventory via credit cards, so RCS needed to be able to take credit cards.

Nope. Gary doesn't use "mystery manufacturers" who refuse to be identified or involved.
Brian Elfert - 29 Apr 2004 12:46 GMT >I wonder when RCS will can the Aerotech website and bring it inhouse to the >RCS website ? Why should they? I believe the Aerotech name was one of the things RCS bought. Many businesses have websites under multiple brand names.
