ok i got my transaction in my bank acc - it was $120.24 + $1.80 intl transaction fee :/
anywho thats $122.04 all up, from $106.60US thats a rate of 0.8735
right now xe.com has it at 0.8814
my last post showed:
AUD$1.00 gives us
paypal rate: ~85.xx US cents
xe.com rate: 89.9968 US cents
comm bank rate: 92.47 US cents
so at the end of the day, i still better than paypal, and had the dollar not dropped, i probably would have saved a bit more.
only thing i didnt know abt was that fee for overseas payment....

I just completed a transaction at PayPal using my credit card's conversion rate. PayPal claimed that if I was to let them convert, my US$125 purchase would have been 146.09 (I noticed this fluctuate from 145ish just from going forward and back in my browser). The actual transaction when converted by Bendigo came to $145.53... so in my case, a minimal difference.
