grumble... I guess you're right. It just makes me crusty, the way they grab
an extra nickel or dime at every turn. It sure would be nice to skim 3% off
the conversion rate when I buy from shop.lego.com.
2.9% + 30¢ to receive, plus 1% for international buyers, plus ~3% to convert.
For a $US 10 transaction, a 1.48 Paypal conversion rate and a 1.52 'real' rate,
I get $CDN 13.78 and paypal gets $CDN 1.42.
