Ebay and International currencies

Post by Keyz »

Would you guys still buy off the bay if the currency is international (i.e. not USD)???

Interested in your opinions.

it's a big world, full of many currencies.
You will always lose out a little to E-Bay/paypals exchange rates, but play the game, follow the ups and downs of the markets and buy appropriately.
Like right now for me is a great time to buy from the UK as the CDN dollar is better against the UK Pound than it had been in a few years.

Weak US dollar, yes, but Canadian is strong.
