Currency And Best Service--We might have a problem...
I can no longer find a way to change the currency on the Best Service software site. Everything is in dollars.
Do you think they found out our trick of paying in the much lower currencies?
If so, then what a bummer.

Let's hope not. That was a nice additional discount.

If you use a VPN to get the currency choice I'm pretty sure they would be required to add in the ~20% VAT.

What? This Best Service? https://www.bestservice.de/en I get different currencies on top, next to the German, British and French flags. Just Euros, USDollars and Pounds, though. Is that new? Or Old?

US based customers used to get the currency choice, but not any more. The option is no longer there.

And just to confirm, when I used a VPN with a server based in Norway I do get the currency selection at the top of the page. No way to tell about if that would force you to pay VAT though. They are definitely using your IP address for showing the currency choice menu.

They upped the prices recently anyway making them more comparable to our dollar. That is one thing I noticed when I bought during the 2for1 sale. I went to pay in pound but when I converted the amount to dollars, it was pretty much the same cost so I just went with dollars to avoid paying conversion fees.

They may think this will be good for them but it will cost them sales. It will be good for Time+Space though.
