    You let people walk away with your merchandise without getting an
    approval on the credit card? That's just asking for trouble. Also
    everyone is used to waiting for someone ahead of them to use a credit
    card. That's all people use anymore. There is nothing rude about it
    and you are setting yourself up for some hefty chargebacks one of
    these days (especially now that you've made this public on the
    web--and if you think the criminals don't monitor stuff like this,
    think again).
