If you buy in dollars (be they US, Canadian, Australian or whatever) then converting using the exchange rate from the paper, or using online sites such as the two I list below will give you a *rough* idea of the cost. However, your credit card company (or bank) will almost always use a slightly different exchange rate, probably a slightly lower one.

I recommend buying region 1 dvds from
www.play247.com
they have all the latest R1 titles, at great prices in £`s and delivery in Europe is Free, and from expreience they about 3 working days to arrive.
The titles maybe slightly more expensive than buying in the US in $ but the speed and ease more than make up for it.

Most new films are released first in USA thus R1 R1 often are uncut or contain cut footage on the R2 we get in Europe
