The difference between CAN and US currency is less than one cent right now so I don't understand how I was charged an extra 12 cents on a $3 purchase. Has anyone else noticed this happening?

Hi .. There is a cost associated with buying foreign currency be it from the bank or PayPal. PayPal charges a conversion fee of 2.5 %.

 Ebay's conversion rate should only be used as a guide and checkout will always be slightly more . In addition , exchange rate is in constant motion whereas PP adjusts based on a quote from their bank, received twice daily.
