They're quite fascinating these rates. Back when the Swedish Krona (SEK) was 14 to a UK pound I was quite careful with placing orders in Britain. When the USD dropped to about 6 SEK to the USD I went crazy and ordered tons of stuff from America only to have Swedish customs crush my dreams with their, not tariffs, but service fees. Greedy gits...

Now that the pound is 1 to 12 SEK I've instead ordered tons of stuff from Britain. Not because it's that cheap really when you think about it, but more because it is cheaper than it used to be. Unless you consider the price hikes GW has had as of lately. (Feeling quite stupid now when I think about it).

Anyways, the good part about Britain for us EUropeans is that we pay their VAT and no tariffs. And, well Swedish VAT is higher so...

Gah! So many variables.
