Subject: Paying for Membership

Message:
When I click on upgrade to Platinum it tells me I need to pay $52.50 in US funds to upgrade.

If I scroll down it says I can also pay 52.50 Euro to upgrade.

The last I check the exchange rate was around 1.45 to 1. I think I'll exchange some US dollars and send my payment to Switzerland.

I really thought

Message:
an euro is worth more than a dollar?

1 EUR = 1.4629 USD

That means
52.50 EUR = 76.80 USD
52.50 USD = 35.89 EUR

Or am I being silly now.

You are correct....

Message:
.... now do the math. So, lets say Dewillget8 had 52 Euros. He could send it to Gameknot or use 35 of his Euros to buy $52 US. Then he can send the $52 US to Gameknot and go to Starbucks with his remaining 17 Euros :)

heinzkat hit it on the nose.

It would benefit Europeans more to pay in US funds.

can not be held responsible for world currency fluctuations; they still pay their employees in USD not Euros. Stop complaining.
