Conversion from Pound to C$ is more than USD to C $!

[patken123]

Just thought I should share this:

if you compare item #371013657991(US $ 12.95 = C$15.45)  

and item #370549612752(GBP10.93=C$19.74)

for the same size maps,the only difference is one listing is in Pounds and one in USD,

Am I missing something? I know the maps are not exactly the same but what's important (and should matter)is the size  not the print itself.

The prices shown in the actual listings is below the information in your post.

What exactly is your question?

The way I see it, a seller in the USA sells an item for a bit less than another seller located in the UK.  Where is the problem?

I can get a four litre bag of milk at the corner store for $4.99 or go to WalMart and pay $3.97.  Do you expect every seller in the world to sell everything at the same price?

Both items are sold by the same seller,one in UDS one in GBP.

IN GBP the same item cost more.

I contacted the seller and she got it fixed,

For those who are interested:when you selected 24"x 17" size in matte finish ,the listing with british pounds was over $4 more (in Canadian $) than the listing with USD,both items were the same and sold by the same seller.

the seller had put higher price  in GBP,than USD.

You do help folks a lot and I respect that. therefore,I refrain from answering the above question.

Maybe the listings were originally created when the currencies were worth different amounts and since then the value of some currencies in relation the CDN$ is no longer the same.

We have been readjusting the shipping in some of our listings  for this very reason. We list in CDN and US$.

Thanks for possible explanation for this discrepancy in prices,I checked the items prices last night and it was back to being higher in GBP than USD.(same items/seller,different currency)
