Price mismatch

Postby mad21angus » Sun Jan 03, 2010 5:32 pm

Hi,

Prior to purchasing items, I always do a currency check if items are in Euros or Dollars (I'm in Scotland we use £). Checking your prices 30 Dollars = £18 and 30 Euros = £27, a £9 difference in cost. I can accept a £1 mismatch, but this charging Americans less and everyone else a significant amount more is something that has irritated the hell out of me for years. Needless to say I will not be buying your software. It may not be deliberate but I hate the feeling of being ripped off.

Regards,

Joe

You are only partially right :) (which also means that you are partially wrong :wink:)

Right now on the SWREG site you have for Winimage Standard:
US $30.00
or
EUR 22.06
or
GBP 19.82

Which seem grossly the "right" exchange rates:
30/22.06=1.3599
30/19.82=2.058

The Paypal rates (please mind how Paypal is listed as an alternative to the "main"form of payment which is SWREG) were probably established when the change between Euro and Dollar were very near to 1, and not updated.
