I noticed the Board approved $10,000 for a new Point of Sale system for the museum, as below (copied from the posting on the Board Page):
On May 12, 2013 the Studebaker Drivers Club Board of Directors had an online meeting. Those present by internet or phone were Carl Thomason, Mimi Halgren, Nita Ketchum, Jane Stinson, Tom Curtis, Paul Dammes, Colin Fort, Edward Burris, Larry Swanson, Cliff Tattersall, Frank van Doorn, Ed Wenger and James Bell. Absent were Gary Ash and Ebon Jones. Below are the items that were voted on.
Bob Henning presented a request of $10,000 for a new POS (point of sale) system for the Studebaker National Museum. This would be from the Capital Cost Fund. Mimi Halgren made the motion and seconded by Edward Burris. The motion passed unanimously.
New decals have been designed. Edward Burris made a motion to purchase 20,000 decals. Frank van Doorn made the second. The motion passed unanimously. These will be sent with renewals and to new members. Additional decals will be available at the SNM store.
Can any of the above clarify whether this will mean those of us not in the US will be able to make online purchases and pay via PayPal say, instead of the current "We don't accept etc. message the museum lists)?
I can accept the need for an invoice including postage options to various places like on eBay, but am not interested in handing over my Visa details including the verification number just because "we don't" has been past practice.
No issue if not, just would seem a wasted opportunity to update to the latest methods.
I wish the Museum well regardless of their policies on this matter.
