Gb Update.
Hi everyone,
The total turned out to be 747.10 for 5 visors. The exchange rate on xe.com turns out to be just an average national exchange rate quote. Paypal on the other hand have a "more accurate" exchange rate.
With xe.com, the exchange rate from 78225 yen converts to 726.023 US dollars. However, that's only an average exchange rate.
Now Japanparts allows me to pay with Paypal since I can pay for the items accordingly with Japanese currency. Paypal then have their source of exchange rate quotation to convert from yen to US Dollars to charge me. So the 78225 yen converts to 747.10 US Dollars.
So I want to apologize to everyone for the miscommunications between Japanparts and myself.
747.10/5 = 149.42
149.42/.97=154.04.
So instead of saving 10 dollars we only saved 5 bucks.
Vince:
I will give 5 bucks back to you when you pick up the visor. Please remind me to do so during pick up in case i forget.
Phillip:
You can pick it up from me anytime. Just let me know or give me a call to arrange time of meeting.
Thank you all. The visors are finally coming.

Update
78,225 JPY Japan Yen = 747.10 USD United States Dollars
747.10 / 5 ~= 149.42 shipped.
ATTN:
Those of you who request to pay with credit card, I can only accept paypal. Furthermore, you must pay (I believe its 3%) the percentage charge that paypal's gonna charge me for accepting payment from you guys. I am not a vendor, so I will not be making any profits. Contrary, I do not want to lose any money from that charge myself. So its only fair for those of you that choose to pay with credit card to pay me the 3% extra for making the payment even.
In such case, your payment will be $149.42 / 0.97 = $154.05
If you take 3% away from 154.05 out, then the product of it is 149.42.
154.05 - (154.05 * .03) ~= 149.42 <-- 0.03 = (3%)
PAYPAL REQUEST: You may pay me 154.05 via paypal. Or just give me 149.42 during pick up.
KEYS:
PAID -> Paid
* -> Paid participant
1. Kevin (hey1 02 - wagon) *
2. Ed (Laoba 05 - Sedan) *
3. Vince (J*bishop - 04 Wagon) *
4. Francis (imprezagdb - 04 - Sedan)
5. Phillip (wrxpiprezza - 05 - Sedan)
Thanks for your cooperation.
