Open account? More like 'open sesame' to getting your goods, am I right?

Open account all the way! Who has time for all that paperwork with a bill of exchange or letter of credit, am I right? Plus, you can't beat the convenience.

Hmm, I'm not sure. Payment in advance seems like it would be too much of a hassle for the buyer. Maybe a letter of credit is the way to go?
