Believe it or not there was a time when Visa/MC charges were done with a multiple copy paper transaction. A lot of hands on steps were required for processing and payment to the vendor. A vendors "rate" was based on average transaction. Simply put each transaction for a appliance store would be a lower percentage than for a restaurant for example.

With each step now being electronic what you are seeing is just another money grab.
