I want my store to show on the UK and Australian ecrater sites so I ticked the enable GBP and AUD currencys in 'Store Options'.
I then set a conversion rate in 'Global Editor' for UK and AUD currency but I didn't calculate it correctly so now if I enter a price on a listing for all three currencys, for example $10 US,

It sounds like you left the box blank for "Do not auto convert prices in other currencies" in your Store Options. It is located just below the enable GBP and AUD and defaults to blank. You need to add a checkmark to tell the system you want to do your own conversion of prices. With the box checked, you'll need to run the global editor anytime you want to change the conversion rate used in your store.

I think the eCrater system auto converts the shipping price no matter which system the seller uses. I don't personally sell on the UK or AU sites, but I remember this raising questions in the past. Hopefully someone with personally experience on the three sites will be along later to add more info.

Also, your message was cut off after you entered the symbol for GBP. There are a number of things that will cause a message to be dropped in the forum. Quote marks that are curved instead of straight will also cause the same problem.

thanks for the quick reply, I did check the "do not auto convert" box initially, and the rest of my message that was cut off is..................
for example $10 US, 6 GBP, 9 AUD the system converts it to strange amounts like 6.12 GBP, 9.34 AUD, I just wanted the listings to show whole numbers with no decimal places but I do want my store to be visible on the UK and Australian sites
