I'd love it if I could do the same but it is a little bit more difficult since I live in the US. The drop in value of the currency is incredibly frustrating... I blame... The banks!

To be honest, when I'm looking for services from a European vendor I expect to be charged in Euros, Pounds, whatever, and am curious when people charge in U.S. Dollars. While I'll still charge rates in U.S. Dollars, with the current rates what they are, I'd rather be charging in Canadian Dollars. Living in Phoenix, that's really not a good option, and well, Pesos just don't carry the same recognition. Living in the U.S. I agree with you, Hyder.

Upon conversion it will be in whatever dollars the current exchange rate is. Face it, it's not a dollar favored world anymore.

Snubbing your US customer base is insane. So what if the dollar is declining? When your sales go down by 90% because you don't accept the dollar you'll be begging to get that business back... Bad move.
