Show me the money in terms I understand
Among my wishlist items for today is the tweak needed to make eBay show me the cost of stuff in real terms. I’m not bad at mental math, but given that payments for all the stuff I want to buy must pass via Paypal (which is the hind quarter of the auction world), why can’t the display show me the different values in “converted” terms? I want to know the vig. Don’t pretend it isn’t possible, this is a computer.
