I haven't had much time to search for some kind of currency conversion site, but figured someone here would know off the top of their head what British 'pounds' equates to in dollars.

Comic-Con is here in town for me, and I've been managing to get a few things that I've been missing in my collection. However, there's a particular series no one here in town seems to have heard about, and originates from the UK. In any case, I *finally* managed to find a website that actually carries the product in question, and was going to plan on ordering from overseas.

I've never really ordered overseas from Europe and all, but noticed the price of a particular item was 3.50 pounds. Anyone have an idea what this translates to in dollars? :confused:

I figure, I'm going to have to get a rough estimate of sorts, if I plan on bulk-purchases.

Try http://www.xe.com

It has the latest exchange rates. Currently £1 = $1.83, so the exchange rate is pretty crappy for you in the USA. On the other hand it is great for me :)

Another link! Excellent, excellent. It seems like I'm going to have to wait for just a wee bit. I didn't take into account what shipping and handling costs would be!

:eek:
