I find it very frustrating when I go to buy BC and ROBUX, everything shows in US DOLLAR can we have an option to bring a UK site? Or UK buying area
- It costs $400,000 dollars to see me...for 12 seconds |

I live in the UK too.
All you have to do is go to google and type in "[number] dollars into [number] pounds". |

Edit: And the UK version currency would either be EUR (Euros) or GBP (Great British Pound)

| I know you can do that, but PayPal charge a currency change fee ROBLOX should make a UK site (maybe only the builders club page and show UK prices) |

Well, I bought my BC with PayPal. My mum's PayPal card uses the currency GBP. So it automatically changes the $30 I would've spent if I was American to £20 I'd have to pay in England.
Very simple :).

I don't live in Europe, but this could make a great addition.
It'd be nice to see ROBLOX spreading out to other countries.
+1 Support. |

ROBLOX is hosted in the U.S.A.
So no support. |

| You're missing the point, why change all the prices because people want their country prices? I know euro prices, my cousins are italian. |

So, ROBLOX should use a trade currency (e.g. Google) and display them prices
Maybe in your account there could be an option to change country? It would be much better when buying BC |

| So ROBLOX could display prices in other currencies. However, the purchase would still be in USD therefore you would still be charged a currency conversion charge. Also, if ROBLOX display prices it'd be an approximate price so you will almost always be paying a different amount. |

| The conversion charge is normally only one pound, so yeah that would work |

Only one pound?
When I bought BC 1.5 years ago, 5 dollars = 3 pounds.
Wai they lose that conversion? :(
Either way, we'll lose the magical cheapness we get if we do this. |

| It depends on what type of BC you purchase and your bank. With Nationwide the GBP to USD conversion charge for BC is £0.07 when I bought it last month. |

Well, true.
Either way, I still think it's cheaper if you use pounds. Definitely was when I bought BC monthly that time ago. |

| Gaia, That's not the cost, that's the fee we incur when the bank changes the currency of our money from GBP to USD it's added to what we pay for BC. |
