  I hate this story. Because it's true.

  And more importantly, it affects my eBay auctions to UK and Europe. eBay updates all amounts within minutes based on real time exchange rates. One moment, an item selling for 28 British Pound Sterlings will be converted to $55.79 and the next moment, the same item that is going for 28 BPS is valued at $54.00. You may think that $1.79 is not much. But when your item has 6 more days for the dollar to slide more and you have several dozen items going to UK and Europe, you can't help but sit there and watch yourself lose money.

  Quoted: The dollar suffered sharp falls on Thursday, hit by reports of weak US business activity and a benign inflation picture.
