I believe that statement pretty much sums up Netflix's business model as well.You either accomodate yourself to the online booking system or you don't.

When anyone bypasses substantive points of view that may vary from the hardened position, the misdirection takes place. Personal service with a human being is not something that's backwoods when I am spending my money in places that's unfamiliar to me, such as campgrounds, as with a lot of others. Of course I am with a lot of others that's backwoods I guess and expect someone to check me out when i am also spending my money at a store.Wonder how that could happen?
Nothing complicated about it - it covers the cost of the reservation service you are using. The creation and maintenance of the website itself, maintaining the reservation database (which may be separate from one the campground actually uses at its office), and passing updates back & forth to the campground(s) themselves. Somebody has to do it, whether extra staff at the campground or a 3rd party service.Can someone please explain why when you do all the work online to book a campground, you then get hit with an admin or booking fee after you've done all the work
So would it make you feel better if the park system hired a telephone operator to take your reservation and just raised your rate to cover the cost? $5.00 a night for two weeks surely beats a $7.50 booking fee?When anyone bypasses substantive points of view that may vary from the hardened position, the misdirection takes place.

So far no outlet has sent me a paycheck or a discount card for doing their work for them by checking out my own items. The booking agencies that's charging service fees, while you cannot avoid them in some cases, is charging you to take your money in the same manner. As you say take it or leave it and enjoy blindly overpaying.
I guess you never have had to wait for a long time in a line while the debit cards are being processed.The alternative to refusing to go through self checkout because it’s unjust is going over there, standing 15 minutes in the express line while a peer counts exact change from a coin purse and the next one up who had 87 items writes an essay on a paper check (‘cause I guess debit cards are a sign of the Antichrist) then balances their checkbook before handing it to the clerk who spends another five minutes verifying they’re not Al-Qaeda.
Not on this planet, I haven’t.I guess you never have had to wait for a long time in a line while the debit cards are being processed.
I have seen where the time it takes to get to the processor and approved can be lengthy.Not on this planet, I haven’t.
You are lucky then.Not on this planet, I haven’t.
And man-oh-man there were some crappy websites. I know. I built a few - LOL...Just like when the WWW exploded, if your business didn't have a web presence chances are you're losing out on business and certainly behind the times.
I must admit that's some creative writing.The alternative to refusing to go through self checkout because it’s unjust is going over there, standing 15 minutes in the express line while a peer counts exact change from a coin purse and the next one up who had 87 items writes an essay on a paper check (‘cause I guess debit cards are a sign of the Antichrist) then balances their checkbook before handing it to the clerk who spends another five minutes verifying they’re not Al-Qaeda.
You’re just saying that.I must admit that's some creative writing.
Let me guess you have never been in line when a debit card gets declined only for the other customer to say but there's plenty of money in there.Not on this planet, I haven’t.
