damn dollar conversion!

just a little rant here..

I recently ordered about 100.00 worth of records in UK pounds. IN UK POUNDS. I didn't realize this and when i went to check the conversion i chose USD to euro... cause i figured it'd be 100 euro.. not UK POUNDS!! what i originally figured to be about 120USD ended up being about 175USD and now i overdrew my credit card. darn. end rant.

The $/� rate at the moment absolutly rocks

�1.00 = $1.75

not quite as good as it was last tim I was over there (when it was $1.9/�1) but still enough to make stuff ultra-cheap-tastic

Ive even had some nutters buying records from me in the states- paying �30 for one of them plus shipping- so they are paying $65 for one record! Madness! This is not a one off either...happens quite a lot

Oh and Clinton was alot better. The conversion rates were rather high during his term also.
