| Currency conversion |
Prices in the ABC Classics catalogue are shown in Australian dollars, such as
AU$ 8.95.
Visitors from many countries other than Australia will also see prices in
their own currency underneath or alongside the Australian prices. In some cases where
a visitor's currency is not presently included among the currencies able
to be converted, the word "Convert" should appear after each Australian
currency price.
The word "Convert" is a link. When clicked it calls
a small window displaying a list of currencies into which prices can be
converted. When this window is closed, the browser's screen will be
refreshed. If a currency is selected, any prices on the page should
now be followed with their equivalent in the selected currency, as should
prices on all other pages thereafter.
If you do not live in Australia, and you see neither
a price in your own currency nor the word "Convert", then try clicking
this button
and if a pop-up window appears, select your currency from the list
displayed. If you neither see prices in your own currency nor a pop-up
window when you click the button, please read the section on
Personal Firewalls below.
An attempt will be made to write a cookie in your computer's
cookie folder so that each time you return to Buywell to view the ABC Classics
catalogue or Buywell's full catalogue, prices will be
converted to the currency you seleted.
You may change the currency into which prices are converted
at any time. If you select "AUD Australian Dollar", the price
conversion facility will omit price conversions altogether as it is aware that
they already appear in Australian currency on all pages. If the word "Convert"
was displayed before "AUD Australian Dollar" was selected, then that too will disappear.
Australians viewing the ABC Classics catalogue, and overseas visitors who have
selected "AUD dollars" as described above or who do not see prices appearing in
a currency other than Australian can call the window from which an alternative
currency can be selected by clicking the "Select currency" button above.
UNDERSTANDING CURRENCY CONVERSIONS
Prices appearing in currencies other than Australian dollars
are based on the exchange rate at the time of display of the page. Please bear
the following in mind:
- If you use your browser's "history" facility to view pages off-line, any
non-Australian prices appearing will not necessarily reflect the exchange rate
in force at that time.
- The exchange rate in force when an order is despatched may differ from that
when the order was placed. Prices charged are based on the exchange rate in
force when orders are despatched.
- The exchange rate used by your bank or credit card facility may not be the
same as that published in general exchange rate tables.
If you are running a personal firewall, such as Symantec's
Norton Internet Security, you may see neither a price in your local currency nor
the word "Convert" if your default settings block script popups.
To take advantage of our currency conversion facility, check your personal firewall's
help facility to see whether you can enable script popups for individual web sites,
and if so, enable them for the web site con-vert.com.
