Pre-order pricing and exchange rates next year?
Currently the forthcoming PRUSA XL is being advertised with a total price and a pre-order booking amount.
Is this price fixed or variable based on the exchange rate at the time it is shipped?, I would guess it is variable.
Then there is the deposit:
Now as an example, If for example I pay in currency X which for instance equates to euros 100X = €100
and next year, the value of X say becomes 100X = €50 which suddenly makes the printer twice as expensive as when I ordered it so I don't want to order it any more and want to cancel my order.
Will I be refunded what I paid in ?, 100X or the value €100 which would now be 200X.
Which would mean PRUSA just made €50 for holding onto my money.
If it were the other way round 50X= €100, then my 100X deposit will not be worth €200, but €100 as that is all it was worth when I paid the deposit, so I lose €100.
Hmmm, think I'll wait see.
Normal people believe that if it is not broke, do not fix it. Engineers believe that if it is not broke, it does not have enough features yet.
