Aircooled VW South Africa

Please can we keep ths one only for info to see what is the current progress or shall i say detoierating of the ZAR to teh USD

i have seen that is is standing this morning on R10.56 to 1 USD

This is so going to be so bad influence on buying toys from Henry ( no Henry i am not saying you are expensive - indeed your prices are very good)

We have to start paying Henry in biltong and Amarula Cream!

I have alot of Mampoer!! Henry do you drink Mampoer?

Last night it was R10.74.

this is bad, as this is forcing me to slow down on spending on my toys

I have put in a live 90 day graph in your first post so you guys can watch it. I'll sticky it too.

thanks Eben, dem from the first day of October it realy shoot up.

True!... I'm getting paid in dollars... but unfortunately I don't live in SA
BTW this graph will update itself at the end of every day.

you are the man!! thanks

My goodness,now I will spend even more time on here!!

Guys I do understand about the spending, I have been keeping a very close eye on the rates, and that is one reason I am not doing much with the toyshop. Also I was going to close TB4 before Xmas, but now it will stay open indeffinate, at least till the exchange rate starts to drop. So I will be placing toys from time to time, but it will be very slow in the shop for now. I don't think you will mind.
Thank you for commenting on my prices, like I said so many times before,it is not a profit thing, I enjoy doing it for fellow VW nuts.

he he he he Henry says i am a VW nut. Henry i have notice that the sale of the toys for TB$ did came down, even myself are trying my best not to spend to much on it now, I just hope the rate will get better, my wife already made a comment that i should stop spending on my toys, but i think it is because she want a swimingpool. Even Arcelor Mittal - the company that i work for is scaling down on spending and they are cutting all overtime here were i am working

I also get paid in dollars, but luckily I live and spend in SA, so hopefully this month Xmas will come early. Renovating the house is really putting a dent in my bank balance.
Although it's nice to get paid extra when the xchange rate goes mal, it's not a good thing for anyone who has to buy anything from overseas.

Look at that climb... Jacob-straight-up

I have a feeling that some big boys are making a killing off the Rand, which is why its bouncing so much R10.80 yday morning, R9.99 this morning, I saw R10.34 today and now its back at R10.14

Buy, sell, buy, sell
