$1 is only 0,738 Euro's guys. That is an alltime low.

So start ordering those parts from summit/umi/spohn/moderndaymuscle etc!

Re: Watch the Dollar exchange rate!

Hehheh,
I watch the exchange rate everyday. It's ok at the moment but its taken a slight dip from $2 to the £ to $1.98 to the £. Still good though. One thing to watch is don't use Paypal for anything, their exchange is $1.94 to the £ when the rate is $2.00 to the £. Theiving ****in Gypsies.

Re: Watch the Dollar exchange rate!

PayPal is a useful choice for buying items in Ebay but their exchange rate...

That's why I configured in my Profile to get receipts with the credit card issuer exchange rate, much better than PayPal's.

1 € = $1.4184

Huh paypal isn't the problem here in the UK it's the rotten TAX MAN!
I end up paying enough in tax, that I might as well buy the parts here!

THANKS RIP OFF BRITTEN!

Speed.

Phil,

Thought we'd never hear from you again! Not a bad looking steering wheel for $165.
