It is hard when the USD is not stronger than other country money. I thought Japan was going to bankrupt us during the week we stayed there it was $5 = 1 yen. It sucked.

In spite of the exchange rate, we have to add import duty and postage/freight cost to our purchases, so we still hurt.

I think for Martin it was the difference between making it himself or buying ready made.
