When you order from http://www.samurider.com how do they do the conversion on your visa does it show up as yen or dollars? I know this is kinda a stupid question I just never purchased anything in other currency,

Thanks,

[Randy B]

I just do paypal. Comes out as dollars.

The credit card co will do the conversion at the current exchange rate. Will show as dollars on your statement.

What Todd said. Its no different than any other purchase as far as you are concerned. Its the same when you use your card overseas. Shows up as dollars on your statement.

Takashi lists the current conversion rate on his website. I've seen it as low as $93 to 10,000 yen and as high as $106 to 10,000 yen. It's currently $94.13 to 10,000 yen.

Time to buy! I placed my weekly order this morning.

Get a PayPal account. It's very easy and secure, with good communications. Use your CC to pay your PayPal invoice.

Mr T awaits your order.

And when you're interested in an item, each listing has a contact option. Clicking there will ask for your contact info, and Mr. T will return your email within 24 hours, listing the price of the item with shipping, in both yen and dollars, so you'll know beforehand exactly what you'll be spending. Just to ease your concerns, I can say that he has some of the best customer service I've ever seen, and extremely fast shipping.

How do you buy anything from Samurider? I can't find a buy/cart link. Sent message to Mr T, but no response yet. Thanks. Bill in San Diego.

Keep in mind that Takashi is 12 hours ahead of me or 16 hours ahead of you. He always responds, AAA company to deal with !

At the site's home page, there's a menu bar near the top. Select "Shopping Guide" and it's all explained. Took me a while to notice that and click on it.

EDIT:..... After you send an email to the site, you should receive an automated reply that states they will reply further in 1-2 days. So if you haven't received one, check your spam folder.

Also keep in minds it is the weekend, so with the time difference, Mr. T probably hasn't bee in the office since sometime Friday morning for us in the US. I've found that he will generally reply starting late in the evening on Sunday since it's already Monday morning in Japan.

Also, going back to previous discussions about having to use Paypal, that saves your CC foreign transaction fees if your have them. Most are around 3%.
