Hi - I shouldn't be asking, but if I were bidding in the auction, I'd also be concerned about how much I would be bidding in relation to others, especially with last-minute beatouts that occur; My thought is that since pretty much none of the actual bids are individually labeled as US or in CAD, probably the assumption is that all are bidding in USD but a confirmation would be helpful; There are even about 3-4 Canadians bidding at the moment on the highest # lot and how do I know without calculating every time (and likely them also) if I want to bid for that lot? I am just a little alarm on a dashboard that should be checked from time to time; However you did it last year maybe was just fine - Great auction - pumpkinpal2 - if any development/reply, it should also be put on each lot listing for uniformity? Or prominently, anyway. eg

Other countries experience the same thing when bidding in USD. I usually look up a few amounts ahead of time and right it down $50 = 63.97 - $70=89.55 etc

There is no exchange rate in this auction. This is to level the playing field.
$20 USD = $20 CAD = 20 Euros

You live in the US so you pay whatever you bid in your currency.

Well, OK, good. If it ever comes up again even on another auction we have a reference point right here. There were questions arising so I asked and now we all know! yay! eg
