Down to the vendor. And Amex is higher across the board.

Yes, we don't take Amex but it would have been closer to 3%.

But cc is always on a % basis unless a refund. Debit is always fixed. This is true of all vendors hence why they don't want £60k on a cc.

CC Charge is also on the inc VAT amount so effectively that adds almost another 1% to the cost to the dealer.

I had to pay 2k on my C63 - just chucking that in there for a bit of comparison...
