Yeah was watching about that on the news last night, kinda sucks when ya get paid in USD though

 

[sudesh]

Hold on... I got .9966 CAN for every $US I sold ...

Not even at par.. less...

Terrible times.. it was a 20% premium when I started looking at domains and now, 20% less revenue and 20% less more on conversion!! Is it a double whammy or not!!!!

reg fees are lower if you reg in US $ and have to exchange C$

 

[whitebark]

Indeed - regging and renewing via US dollars is nice. Selling in US is not so attractive anymore. I've got both a domain sale and website sale coming through escrow and I've lost probably $50 in just the past few days waiting for it all to clear! grrrr

.9991 on news this morning.

for a brief moment the cad eclipsed the greenback today. Something like 1.0004 to every 1 usd.

don;t like the exchange but nice to see Canada's loonie high for the bragging rights alone.

 

[hugegrowth]

Paypal still exchanged for under .98 today

they can't keep up with the fast rise. lol

Going to feel odd to be saying:

domain.ca

payment by Can$

 

[hugegrowth]

I already posted my first .ca for sale here specifying C$. What a moment. Will have to change Sedo listings to Euros.

I might have to fake my ident to beng american now, so people stop askin for my Canadian dollars.

 

[liberator]

I hate losing money cashing USD checks.... Know of a .ca register that charges USD?

I picked up 10k on Tues only cost me $9900. Great for buying domains now. And I just put out my first offer specifying canadian dollars for the sale price.

I still miss the days when I got paid $1.63 for every $1. That's a 40% income hit over the last 3 years or so. :sigh2:
