    Awesome! I hope it keeps climbing because I want to buy Carnivac and I have missed out on a few rare complete auctions due to the bad dollar.

    I am also holding out from buying some combiner accessories that I need as well as Reprolabels.

    are we taking about the carnivac been sold by sonofayoda on the us bay? I have him on my msn, if you want to make a reasonable offer to avoid the market volatility, let me know, I might be able to talk the price down abit for you.

    I'm thinking of making some upcoming purchases before next tuesday. Our reserve bank will have its monthly meet, and if they cut interest rates, our dollar will drop. If they keep interest rates on hold because of our unusually high inflation rate, I'd expect our dollar to drop as well, but not by as much, because our economy would be considered too unstable and unpredictable to invest in at this time.
    I think the dollar has climbed a little in the last week because of the details coming out of China, with their growth still expected to be at a phenominal 9% in the next year, which will still require our raw materials to fuel. That should make our economy more bankable over the next year, as long as China's figures are not inflated or doctored, and hold at that level as expected.
    But it just takes one bit of bad news to thow the global markets in a spin again.
