Hi everyone,

Im using paypal to trade online, im based in the UK and its been advised that I show other currencies aswell as GBP if i want to sell to the US, europe etc.

I want to do this but payments taken are accepted in any currency and converyed to GBP, so and the rates change so will my prices, so would it be best to give an approximate price on the site? or any other suggestions?

Cheers,
Billy

I am based in the UK too (hi ) and i buy from then USA all the time and on the website i personally buy from there is never a £ stated too.

I think you need to state a definate price at which your items will sell for not an approxiamte price, so i would just let the international buyers fugure things out for themselves. Could get very messy like you mentioned exchange rates fluctuate so much.

Also i think with paypal if people send you payments not in your own countries currency ie they dont send payment in £'s YOU as the seller will be charged extra for the converstion . Must admit i'm not toally sure but it could be something you could check out.

Have you thought about using another primary payment option like protx? ALot cheaper than Paypal, and some people feel it looks more professional.
