Money Order-Exchange Rate Question

With the exchange rate changing so daily, when you send a money order for a Pre-Reg, what happens if the rate changes by the time they cash the International Money Order. Instead of 150 they could get 145, or 155..Who knows these days.

Plus, how long do you have to wait to get a Confirm..I would like to know if I made it so I can plan my trip!

Re: Money Order-Exchange Rate Question

I sent an International money order that I got from my Post Office aprim. Domestic money orders are only good within the US. When you go just specify that you want an International one.

The registration page states that US dollars are treated at par with Canadian dollars. So I sent mine today for $185.

150 would've included your registration, unless you were also paying for a registration for a second person.

Yea, $150 for me and $35 for the girlfriend.

I just hope it gets to Canada fast enough for me to reserve a Powered Commander.

Don't worry. Nothing travels faster than money. That's what the m in the Theory of Relativity is.
