Just posting this to say I think it was not very clear at all that there was currency conversion involved in buying gems off the store.
I looked into it previously and there was nothing to suggest a conversion would be included in the transaction. $50 NZD is already a lot of money for only 4000 gems or so I thought.
Don’t have access to a credit card so I went out and bought a prezzy card and loaded it up with $50 thinking I could come back home, put the money through the store and get the gems I wanted but unfortunately currency conversion screwed the whole thing up and I was only able to get 2400 gems with 11 dollars or so left on the card
Its really quite a pain in the @ and I’d like to think that at the LEAST if someone from ANET reads this they will take away that they should make it more clear that even if it says billing country NZ and doesn’t mention USD anywhere that it is still going to do a conversion and screw it up for you
