I just noted a attractive Shunyata item for sale by a dealer in Canada ( I live in Ohio, USA ) , I emailed him and he indicated that payment would have to be made in Canadian currency, not certain how to do this ?

paypal allows you to pick a base currency, your credit card may or may not charge a foreign conversion fee for translating USD to CAD. Very cool!

BH is right. If you use a Visa card, conversion is taken care of without hassle. My financial institution charges 1% for a foreign transaction, which is one helluva lot less than you'd pay for currency conversion.

The fees are almost nothing, yes, today it is around 74 cents in federal reserve notes for every Canadian dollar.
