credit card imprinter in sf

October 11, 2007 9:42 AM

Does anyone know where I could buy a manual credit card imprinter in/around San Francisco?

Something like one of these? I need it by Sunday so I don't have time to buy it online, sadly.

You have called around to all the near-by Office Depot / Staples / Smart & Final / Pick-Your-Flavor-Office-Supply stores?

Yep, no luck. Of course, I think a few of the people I've talked to just said no because they had no idea what I was talking about, so it's hard to tell.

Look - I don't know how far Novato is from you, but here is a Craigslist posting from 2 days ago. Worth a shot if your in a bind. Have you contact your credit card processor to find out if they can do anything for you?

Many credit card processors are set up to overnight supplies to you. Mine will overnight one for $18 out of Sacramento plus shipping. Give them a call. Other than that I would find some used office supply / restaurant supply stores, or dig through Google and call places to see if they can overnight this. Yes, places like Office Depot and Office Max are inexplicably useless for credit card supplies, like what you'd use in, uh, an office?

I might have one I don't need -- I emailed you about it.
