Hi guys,

maybe I'm wrong, but I thing there is a little bug with currency conversions ...

For exemple, the "Basic 16x2 Character LCD FSTN - Red on Black" cost $14.95 and is converted to AUD$10.63 ... correct value could be AUD$15.9350 ( value from http://www.xe.com/ )

Am I wrong ? :?

Sorry about that! It's an osCommerce thing. We have to manually click on a button to do the currency rate update. I can't remember the last time it was done (months ago) and the exchange rates have been pretty volatile as of late.

Should be fixed now.

Just as a heads up - only the currency displays on the site have been wrong in other currencies, billing has been fine [all our bills go through the CC processor / paypal in USD].

Cheers,
