dropping but the value of the Euro against the US Dollar has been dropping big time. The exchange rate is now down to about US$1.14 = 1 Euro, versus US$1.36 = 1 Euro a year ago. That means you can get almost 20% more for your money. Or said another way: a model that was priced at 149 Euros cost $202 a year ago and today it will only cost $170. So it's a great time to buy! I just finished placing a bulk order from Germany and, after my discounts, I got the CMC Alfa 8C 2900B Le Mans racer for only US$360 versus a list price of 380 Euros and US$400 and up on eBay. That's an effective rate of only US$0.95 = 1 Euro! And a CMC Aston Martin DB4 GT engine in a showcase for only US$106 (compared to US$125 and up on eBay). Yeehaa!! It takes my mind off the pain from my second knee replacement surgery done recently (that, plus some great pain meds, of course - LOL).
