Yeah right. Some n00b walks into a hobby shop and wants to buy a ton of expensive stuff the owner is going to be thinking "payday", not 9/11.

Esp if they are paying in cash. My LHS refused to take checks due to all the deadbeats and would often give cash discounts to get around CC fees as well as tax "advantages."
