the discount pattern is roughly ten percent almost everywhere and it is a real saving at volume
what happens if the price moves between invoice and payment
on a small order the fee can be a meaningful fraction. on a large one the discount wins easily

i wait for the confirmations the supplier states and then one more before i chase anything
a wrong network transfer is gone. nobody can get it back for you and nobody here will try
