IF you don't have regional billing activated on a $29.95 USD price point the Canadian should first see $32.36 CAD and if he clicks the US currency should see $29.95 USD

If you do choose to activate regional billing I would not advertise your price anywhere on the tour. That way they will not figure out that you are charging more for non US based customers.

Personally I do not use regional billing. I don't think it is a good idea.

Also, remember that the use of "Global Forms" (the diff flags) is not using regional billing. Global Forms just displays the currency depending upon where the user is from.

I'm yanking it from one of my sites. A customer outside the country obviously would realize that they may be getting charged a little more but I did not realize they could see exactly the USD amount to the penny on the day of transaction.

Why would a european surfer ever join if they knew they were getting charged $11 and change more per month and displayed in an easy to follow format?

When regional billing first started I noticed no change in the number of sales (just more money), now I do. That could be a reason, not sure.
