Funny... I live with the conversion issue almost every day. Something we Canadians (and I suspect everyone doing online transactions) have just gotten used to. That said, every barrier to an acceptance is one I want to eliminate. Thanks for the input!

I don't mean to say that it's a rational objection! Apart from a couple of annoying customs charges (because the sender didn't fill out a form correctly, forcing me to pay import duties on already-taxed goods bought from Canada), I have never had any actual problems purchasing from Canada rather than within the US. And for that matter, I'm not even American myself, so it's not based on some unfounded fear about the outside world. I've just gotten lazy and begun to assume that there will be some sort of unforeseen additional cost later, or that relative currency values will have drifted since the last time I looked and I will wind up paying more than I anticipated, or...something. If I'm hesitating over it, I'm guessing a good many more are.
