Your suggestions are quite valid, and I do back them. So do I, as to another suggestion that came up - to include Paypal.
OK, Paypal does charge a certain fee for the transaction. Usually it would be the seller who would have to carry that fee. Still, a note on the sales report, the minute before you pay, informing you that since you are using Paypal, there will be a slightly higher price, could fix that problem. Likely it would not be that high, other than people who wanted the extra security of using Paypal, would be willing to pay that fee. Besides, a while ago, when I was to request some money, I seem to remember Paypal had changed it so that I could decide to let the customer pay the transaction fee, and then Paypal was informing about all that stuff through the customer's paying process. Just mentioning it here, since it all could have been used as arguments why GW would not introduce Paypal payments. After all, the fee is so little, that I'd say it should pose no trouble for either parts to carry their load. I see so many wel-reputed stores now aday using Paypal, and it is a fast and easy way of paying. For many it may even be far easier than to operate their bank site, or remembering all their card details when doing their buyings. And, I fully agree, it is not very adviceable to leave your credit details all spread out over the whole net. Should GW insist on not using Paypal services, due to some kind of disagreeing with the rules and restrictions, there still exists a few other similar paying services on the net market. These much compares to Paypal in their structure and user interface, and would be worth some consideration. Benefit of them all, is that they do accept international cards, if that is where the bottleneck sits for GW. Smile. And after all, we live in 2014, at least for yet another month. Smile. Let me just add on here, that users should be offered to buy directly from GW, even if there is a local dealer. Too often, I have asked the local dealer certain things - like pricing - and either been given wrong info, or been met with ear-deafening silence. Contacting GW directly, I am just told to go back to the dealer. For instance, I have wanted to buy some extra voices for a whole year, but am unable to, since GW tells me to buy from the local dealer, and they tell me they do not sell the voices so could I please contact GW directly. This should be totally unnecessary in 2014. Sorry. Sad smiles. David On 11/30/2014 9:10 AM, Micallef Michael at MITA wrote:
Goodmorning, May I suggest the following two suggestions: 1.Could AISquaired/GW-Micro allow us the blind who live outside the US to buy online using credit card like any other vendors? Obviously I’m referring for Window-eyes and other GW-micro related products such as speech synthesizers. 2 When the user purchase the Window-eyes retail copy, can GW-Micro/Aisquaired be little flexible and allow the buyer to select which speech synthesizer he prefers bundled with his copy of WE, eg: vocalize or dectalk32 or eloquence?
