• There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politicion will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment amoung members. It is a poison to the community. We apprciate compliance with the rules.

Then you should now love the prices of software produced in Australia and New Zealand.

1 U.S. dollar = 1.52975 Australian dollars

1 U.S. dollar = 1.67900 New Zealand dollars
Example: AlphaSim Blackhawk now 50.52 USD (from about $60 a few months back)

Thats great...But are they able to be purchased here in the states? Or is there shipping involved?


And when you consider I've now lost over $100,000 the cost of anything is of no importance to me...:banghead: No matter how great a bargain it might be....

Of course there are shipping costs!
However, Australia Post have an extremely good registered air mail system which is far cheaper than the outragous costs of shipping from the US or EU.
IIRC, the fastest time from Melbourne in Australia to one of our clients in New York stands at 4 days from our local PO to the client signing for his shipment.
:d
PS: If that 100K hit was in capital that's very sad, if it was only 'on paper' then it wasn't actually 'real'.
 
Well so far it on paper...but I'm living off that capital..And if it does not rebound quickly then my capitol drops and my income will have to drop as a result..that will lead to the destrustion of my lifestyle....:banghead:

And that of many more people who believed (or rather, were made to believe) they could live off the stock markets. Really very sad. I hope for your sake the shares will go up again, although it would be against the general interest globally.
