Cost in Australian Dollars?

[Adam Parker]

I notice that Matrix Games has an "Australian" shop front that doesn't convert their games from US dollars directly. Eg: Their US games costing $49.95 cost $52-$57 Australian Dollars.

I notice that this game is selling for $49.95 on the AGEOD US shop front.

If I buy from AGEOD will I be charged a full conversion rate of $75.00 Australian Dollars?

Way too expensive if so for an impulse buy which I was brainstorming...

Anyway. Lest We Forget.

If you buy from AGEOD, you can either choose the US$, GB£ or Euro shop. You will pay in those currencies and your bank will charge you the exchange rate and fee...

IMHO, your best move is to choose the Euro shop. Because you are non-EU citizen, you'll be charged without the VAT (which is currently included in our price), that is a net of around 34 euros, about AUS$ 64.00

Thanks for that information mate. I was wondering that myself. I compared the EU and US conversion rates, but hadn't factored in the VAT.

Most foreigners don't know. FYI, the rate is 19.6% in France, 17.5% in the UK.

Thank you all.
