- Heh - I have a just the opposite problem - I get registrations for my
- shareware program from all over the world, including Australia, and my problem
- is that I sometimes receive checques in Australian dollers. The problem is
- that they cannor be cashed in Iceland. I can cash a personal checque from the
- US, but not anythin in Australian (or NZ) dollars...silly, isn't it...
-
- Yup, same problem here. If it's not drawn on a US bank, it costs me
- $19 to process it. For an item that costs $23, you don't make much
- on that kind of transaction...
-
- VISA/MC does currency conversion cheaply, but getting a merchant
- account these days is like pulling hens' teeth.
