alright, im intrested in buying some stuff online, but its coming from England.
I know nothing at all about England, or how money works.
yeah, i know i seem stupid, but seriousley.

alright, what is European money in equivelent to American money?
is it the same amount? or is is less? more?
I can use american money right? :confused:
and how much do you reckon the shipping would cost, to ship something from England to Chicago?

Im so confused, dont make fun of me, please, im trying to be sincere. :o

they use the pound in england.. it's worth more than the dollar. shipping depends on distance and volume or mass, i think.

edit: just go to your local post office and ask there.. tell them what is being shipped, from where, etc.

http://www.xe.com/ - there is a quick currency converter at the bottom. we use united kingdom pounds. wont the place that you are buying from tell you how much the postage costs?
