Hi Urs

I'm most impressed with the array of synths and plugins you have created, but am a little confused byt the price differences on the website.
Here are a few examples

Zebra = $199 = £102.57

Site price in Pounds Sterling £133.21 £30 more than dollar->pound conversion

MFM2 = $79 = 40.72

Site price in Pounds Sterling £52.88 £12 more than dollar->pound conversion

I don't know if you run the conversions locally on your site or whether it is handled by a 3rd party, but the exchange rate seem to be rather off.. are you aware of this?..


slightly confused

guesses:

(1) VAT
(2) fixed pricing set in advance. differences because of the vagaries of changing exchange rates.
(3) if UKP worked out cheaper than dollars, would you care to be asking?

1) They were the pre VAT prices
2)ok but that would still need to be addressed
3) wouldn't you be concerned if your currency was considerably more?..


either way, think I have gotten to the bottom of this now so feel free to delete Urs

It's often down to currency conversion rates. You can always order in USD directly and have your credit institute do the currency conversion. That pans out better in many cases.
