So I went to eshop, made an order for 56,70eur, tried paying thru paypal as paypal customer, but that didn't work, so I next time I chose credit card option, which redirected me to same paypal, but this time just credit card form, I've filled all the card details and continued with charge, which resulted in being charged for 54,76gbp! There was no information that currency will be converted or that it needs to be converted, I had no option to choose currency not to be converted and finally my card is in euros! That resulted in 59,47eur charge on my card which is 2,77eur stolen from me on one transaction! I have to say that is bold even for paypal!
The hilarious part is that trying contacting them by email form results in undescribed error.
