Some really good information on the ASH website. Didn't give the full value spent on cigarettes but did say:\nTaxation\n\n·   The Treasury earned £8,093 million in revenue from tobacco duties for the financial year 2003-2004 (excluding VAT)\n·   Tax is levied on tobacco in three ways:  specific excise duty at a rate per 1000 cigarettes, an "ad valorem" excise duty which is 20% of the total retail price, and VAT at 17.5% of the price including the other taxes.  About 80% of the price of a packet of cigarettes consists of taxation.\n\n\nCheck out their other fact sheets here:\nhttp://www.ash.org.uk/

Hi Eternity blue, I'm going to "assume" you are from abroad...since you used the word "pounds". LOL! My suggestion would be a "gift" card/certificate to a local cafe' or pub. You shouldn't make the gift to "personal"(in my opinion). Happy Holidays! XOXO Moonpie

Yeah that's not a problem - they will convert it to GBP. Think you might have to sign it or write your town/city on it somewhere. \n\nWe just banked a cheque for 2500USD & got charged £10.50 from the bank so you'll get charged about that amount I would imagine.

NO!!! people complaun about the different currencies but inteligence just over idiot can keep it straught. i miss the different looks & textures. i still, after all this time, hear complaints from the richer countries that the euro has thrashed their wealth. the poorer countries complain about the prices of goods. i hope uk never adopts it, it would be disasterous for the britton. travel in eu isnt better but its not worse unless i intend on buying low & selling high.

I don't think England would be wise to give up the monetary system they currently have. Joining the Euro system would be the same as using the American dollar. You would be assimilated, with no identity then. I am an American, and I don't like the fascism going on with the Republicans, and the current Bush Administration. Americans wont go along with it for to long without a revolt, and I see that happening really soon.

Since about 1.8 US Dollars make a UK Pound; 180 GBP (Great Britain Pound) are equal to 327 USD (United States Dollar)... \n\n$327/ 1.8= 181.6\n\nSince your seller is in UK, they probably must have converted the currency from US Dollar to UK Pound for his (seller) convenience. The currency conversion rates vary from time to time (almost daily)... so when you brought the purse, the currency conversion must have come down to $327.\n\nFor more info on current conversion rates and exchange, check out these site:\nhttp://finance.yahoo.com/currency\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exchange_rate

At today's rate (to 2 decimal places) a GBP (£) is worth $1,78. thus if you multiply 4.48 by 1.78 you get $7.97. However as currency rates are usually shown to four decimal places and the rate is 1.7837, a more accurate value would be :-\n\n1.7837 x 4.48 = $7.99

Put it this way: The current exchange rate from US$ to UK Pounds is 1 USD = 0.57 GBP. So, for every $1 you give to the exchange person, he will give you 57 pence back. $152.20 in UK pounds is 87 pounds 30 pence.

You are saving on the VAT which if you bought the coins in the UK would be another 17.5%.\n\nBe carefull as if you sell in the UK you may be liable for duty.
