It's the responsibility of the buyer to check this before buying.

 

If the item listing is in USD and your Paypal accound is in CAD, you know that you will pay conversion fees.

There is an exchange rate between the Canadian and US currencies.It varies, several times a day, from institution to institution.

In addition, every financial institution that deals in multiple currencies charges a service charge, including Paypal.

 

And that exchange rate is not a firm percentage.

Check the amount between the Royal Bank, xe.com, and a local foreign exchange shop.
