    ^ You have to be very careful of banks because a lot charge higher rates than dedicated merchant processors. The whole industry is a bit strange, and to answer the question above - no there's no "legal" way to avoid the transaction fees.

    If you want to accept CCs you have to pay some sort of fee - one way or another. No way around it. PayPal also has language in their TOS that say they'll kill your account if you charge your customer the transaction fee - so that's not an option either.
