Not necessarily, Rikk.  Personal checks have the opportunity not only to incur overhead, but also cause the 
risk of not being paid for your products at all.  Banks typically charge between $25.00 and $35.00 if a check 
you deposit is refused for insufficient funds.  That's reason enough for me to not accept personal checks.
