Hi,
When I purchase in USD you charge NOK from my card. We currently have a max taxfree amount of 200 NOK in Norway and I therefore try to keep under that when purchasing online. How can I see currency amount so I know how much I can shop for? (200 Nok can vary from 36 USD till 26 USD depending on the currency rate.)
Thank you for your help in advance!
Kind regards,
Tessi

Hi Tessibear
The currency exchange rate fluctuates a little (even during the day).
At the moment of writing 1 USD = 5.43 NOK,
therefore 200 NOK = 36.83 USD
US dollar is slowly going down the sink
You may check PayPal exchange rate at your account Profile -Currency Balances
Then you add 2.5% PayPal currency exchange overcharge and 0.5%-1% for money transfer from another country (if this applies).
Give me a kudos if this helps
Take care
