Congrats!

What does that convert to in $US?

[sam669]

£800 is around 8,000 french francs
10,000 french francs is 1,500 euros
1,000 euros is 6,500 french francs

he really got it for "nothing" knowing what it is!
hope this helped!

How does that help at all? Nobody asked how much it was in Euros or Francs.

According to www.xe.com , 800 Pounds would be about $1465.35 today. Definitely a nice score!

Sweet! I paid $1800 for mine- you definately got a deal! Congrats, man.
(and I'll post pics sometime, too. must make time).

an aware citizen nowadays is supposed to have an idea of the difference between euros and us dollars!

[vaijem777]

An "aware citizen"? Whatever that means....

The fact that $1US= 1.27 Euros doesn't help answer the question "How much is that in US dollars?". Why would a normal "aware citizen" have any use for memorizing the current exchange rates for a currency that has zero effect on their everyday lives?

What a score dude! You lucky b*****d. What a price, play the absolute hell out of it.

aah, typically american you are!
buyers should consider products from everywhere, thus having an idea of how much a currency is compared to theirs. but I guess its all different for north-americans.

I can tell you how the Yen is doing, how the Pound is doing, how the Euro is doing, and how the CD is doing. I can also tell you a signed home market lottery PG10 sold for 381,000Y last week

Yikes, Rich! That's pricey! Was it a 'real' purchase or one of those eBay dealies from someone with no feedbacks in Indonesia?

And hey Sam- you wonder why the French have a bad reputation. And if you think I'm generalizing solely because of your attitude, just look how you branded North Americans after a couple short posts. Let's be a little less critical, and a little more oriented to the topic of the thread.

man, you're taking this WAY too seriously! I do not wonder why french people have a "bad reputation" as you say (not everywhere on the globe anyways...) because I know they can be arrogant. I'm not french myself, just a half-belgian half-malagasy dude who happens to live in France. Maybe the years spent here kind of influenced my behaviour sometimes, but please also admit that you get irritated when someone makes a little spiky comment about north americans, and even though there were enough signs of me joking, smileys anyone? come on, chill!

congrats to Rich who "owns" all currencies around the world! thumbs up
