Order to Invoice Amount difference

[mo99181]

Just wanting to understand why the tax invoice shows a different value to the order.

NOTE: Order and invoice date are the same so therefore no exchange rate should make a difference:

Order details are:
                                    USD           

Value                           $506     +
Postage                       $39      
GST                            $54.50 

Total                            $599.50    AUD $918.18

Invoice details are:
                                        USD                      AUD

Value                           $506                    $736.76+
Postage                       $39                    $56.94
GST                             $54.50                 $79.57

Total                            $599.50    AUD $875.27

Can  anyone explain why the documents are different and we were not charged as per the invoice $875.27.

Thank you, so should we be charged the invoice amount ?  or the order amount?

Just trying to work it out for our credit card clearance 🙂

Did you pay with Paypal?

Paypal charges a 4.5% conversion fee, I think.

Otherwise your Bank may have charged a conversion fee.

Allow payment for the higher amount I'd say.

eBay, through MP, also charge conversion fees.
