    Hi,

    Ive bought new wheels for my car :D from ebay.co.uk but haven't paid for them yet.

    I will be paying through paypal but should i let paypal do the currency conversion or should i let my credit card handle the conversion.

    Where will i get the best rate.

    The wheels and tyres delivered are costing me 1575GBP :eek:.So there could be a big difference.

    Thanks for any help.;)

    The exchange rates used by Paypal and banks change on a daily basis (or more often), so from day to day, there's no way to tell which is better. It will also depend on your particular bank. No one else can answer this for you, you'll need to check the rates from both, at the same time, and decide then.

    In my experience it's better to let the cc company do the conversion..
    I found aer lingus & paypal offered a worse rate.. but not by much..
    they all are a rip-off..
