The Euro is getting stronger and stronger. I wonder if I could get more value out of the Dollars I win if I order stuff from the U.S. or other countries that accept Dollars.
Anybody thinking the same thing?
Problem is I don't know where to order. Most companies don't ship to outside of the U.S. |

It's much cheaper for the most things. Not only is the ratio 1 euro = 1.40 dollar as of today, some things you buy in the US cost the same in euro's in Europe. For example a iPhone costs in the US $399,- (€285,- with the current ratio) and will cost €399,- in Europe.
And for your second remark: I don't know what it is you want to order but I never had any problems with finding a company that would ship to Europe either direct or with UPS or something like that. Only thing is you prolly have to pay in advance. |

Hm , but u have to pay some custom duty when u buy things from the USA ?
I bought some MMA DVDs for ~ 120 $ ( in germany theyd cost close to 600$) but i had to pay some duty. ( dondt remember anymore but was probably like 15% of the price )
but sucks that euro - dollar = 1.4 - 1.0 |

If you're ordering from outside the EU, you have to pay bit more. This is to promote trading between the countrys inside EU. Or that was atleast what the customs told me last time I ordered from the U.S. :-) |

The same for xBox 360 (at least it was like that a few months ago). |

my friends dad had some people staying at his place from poland and before they left they bought a few pricy things like a big lcd tv and stuff like that, i really think it would only be worth it if you where buying something for like 1000+ |
