All Vets Star Medal

alkincer:-

 

I took the time to look them up and they are a commercial vendor of military stuff and are located in the UK. If you notice they quoted the prices in pounds so that when I made the bank conversion rate the price went sky high.

 

I correspond with several people in the UK on Genealogical matters and this is a thing that I was told to be on the lookout for when buying anything in the UK.

 

The rate of exchange varies from day to day but it is running somewhere around this:- an Brit amount of .657 pence is worth about 1.58+/- dollars. There are companies over there that run plane loads of people to the US to purchase goods that they cannot afford to buy over there however they can and do buy them due to the exchange rate(s) over here.

 

There are a couple of hotels in Boston that cater to the Brits on weekend buying trips there are so many jumping the pond as they put it.
