I never said that any AVS webmaster was currently paying fees. I have sites at several AVS's so I know we're not paying. The reference to PA was because I've also read threads today referring to the same deal that we've been hearing about CA and AC- that somehow this is not going to effect them because they do their own processing which is based overseas and that VISA International isn't involved. CA also supposedly has an actual age verification procedure in place that can be fired up if and when the time comes, which would save a lot of people a shitload of work, since they wouldn't have to go back and change all their sites. I hope all that happens. I also hope to God we don't have to pay any fees. But I personally haven't seen anything that leads me to believe that the webmasters aren't going to have to pay. I know some of the AVS's are making changes so that they can continue to operate and be compliant, I'm just not convinced that part of that compliancy doesn't involve us paying the fees. I also don't think there's any point in trying to pick an AVS, or shift all your sites to an AVS, based on the fact that you think none of these changes are going to affect certain ones. And for there being "no plans to introduce fees", I'm sure that will be the case right up until 60 seconds before the emails go out telling us when and where to send the money.
