An Ebay Australia auction for an "As New" Sony ICF-2001D (which is
pretty much the same thing with maybe different accessories; in some
countries it might not have exactly the same frequency coverage) ended
on Saturday at 305 Australian dollars.

According to xe.com, this is $233.135 U.S. but I don't know if this is
the price for someone who speculates in millions of dollars or the
price that is charged by a bank to someone who uses a credit card from
one country in a restaurant in the other.

I believe XE has the going rates on the foreign exchange markets at the
time of your search. I'm not a currency broker, so I have no idea how
this might relate to an ebay auction if you were an American and buying
this radio from someone in Australia.
