What's your providers rate? I never use XE when calculating purchase cost as the amount varies.Originally Posted by GoktimusPrime
According to:
+ Google AU$1 = US90c (US$155.90 = AU$173.82)
+ XE.com AU$1 = US$89.6c (US$155.90 = AU$173.96)
...so atm it looks to be about the $174 mark, which is still substantially below the slated $200 AU RRP, so I'm still happy with that. I'll be miffed if it hits or exceeds AU RRP though (cos then obviously it negates any real advantage of purchasing it online (other than paying an "impatience tax" for getting it a month earlier)).
Amazon's still telling me "Not yet shipped."
St.George has the AUD at 0.8565 while Paypal has it at 0.8639
So that $155.90 now looks like $180.45AUD if you payed with PayPal or through the bank-ad the foreign exchange conversion fee of a few dollars from some.
Throw in the $179 that target has it listed for & potential sales % off & there really isnt all that much of a reason to buy online right now.
