Ummmm...  how much is the  "L" with the line thru it? Is this a Euro? And how many dollars is it? The ad reads 8.50 for a cap and 6.50 for a wooly. How much is that in US dollars? And who do I send it to? Is an International Postal money order O.K.? I could use a polo shirt too, but I'm a very big guy. I need a 4xl. I dunno how many inches this is- I know it is real,real big. I like light blue or black please.Anchorboy

That's the symbol for pounds sterling and if you google 'currency converter' you'll get links to an up to the hour rate between USD and GBP

Roughly two dollars to the pound is a good way to estimate.

Lots of currency converters on the internet
I like this one as it is easy for me to understand http://www.xe.com/ucc/
GBP 8.50 = USD 13.67
GBP 6.50 = USD 10.46

The pound has taken a hammering recently, one pound is approx USD 1.60
Last year it was 2 dollars, but the dollar was weak last year.


Ref sizes.
A rough rule of thumb US S/M/L/XL/Etc. sizes are one up from Euro sizes.
E.G.
US size S = Eu Medium
US size L  = Eu size XL
US XL + Eu XXL

On - http://www.xe.com/ucc/ - The exchange rate is the bank to bank rate. The rate an individual gets is 4-5% lower.

The best way to buy from another country is to use a debit/credit card or Paypal.

If you are ordering from a retailer in the European Union(EU) and you are not in the EU you should not have to pay VAT(15% in the UK) on anything you buy.

On receiving an order you may have to pay import duty, sales tax and/or VAT on the order including the shipping costs. On receiving packages from outside the EU, to the UK the shipping company charges a fee of up to £14 to pay these taxes on your behalf.

Robert I would like to buy a baseball tyype Model Mayhem cap and a wooly watchmen's cap and also a polo shirt. My hat size is 7 and 5/8ths. The shirt will have to be 4xl American or 5xl Euro.
 I would like them in a light blue or black. Please let me know the coasts with shipping. I can use PAy pal because I have an account with them or I can send an international money order. Thank you for your kind heart- Anchorboy

Anchorboy,

 sorry if I misled you, but the state of Texas is abit of a drive from Southern Ontario, you'll have to deal with the chaps direct and their probably all at Weymouth getting abit soggy.
