Thats a joke. You made your member area 30 dollars for a reason right? Well youre giving Europeans access for almost half of it. Youre giving your product away for almost half the price. Why would you do that? Let them pay the 29 Euro's. Its just as much as 29 dollars for an American. They're not paying more man. Just right now theyre paying WAY less and laugh when they see their cc statement and the fact that they can enter your member area for almost half the price.
WTH are you on about?
Why is that a fucking joke?
29.00 USD=18.2407 EUR

but equally
18.2407 EUR=29.00 USD

If someone from Europe pays 18.24 Euros for your site, you get US$29 in the bank. That's what you set the price at because that's what you believe your site is worth. WTH is the problem?

You cannot possible get more european signups with this regional billing. Even when regional billing is off, european customers can pay in Euros. So how can you possibly make more euro signups offering a site for 30 euros as opposed to 18 euros

You are saying you want to hike up the prices for non-US people simply cos you can't stand the fact that the USD is weak and so non-US people would be getting a bargain... The fact that non-regional billing is a bargain for non-US people and the fact you would still get your $30 in the bank per signup says that you should actually captilise on this and push your traffic to the european market to show the euro folk how much of a bargain your site is. Same cash per signup for you, but more members, and more rebills
