Our dollar sucks

[williame3590]

Wanted to order a set of 19'' T-10's from John at CCW but with our dollar the way it is I just can't see myself spending the extra. Was really hoping to have these before spring but I don't know now.
Is there anyone that can see into the future and tell me when our dollar will be back?:swear:

Not sure. It seems to be grinding a lot of projects to a halt right now.... but great if you build stuff here and send it down south!

I just wish it was par and stop all the BS. I'm old but I do remember when there we're a few times when a dollar was a dollar .

You've got my sympathy but you'll just have to put the purchase on the back shelf until our dollar becomes more 'attractive' or theirs becomes less 'attractive'. Tough to be patient I know with spring comin'.

Paying an extra 20%+ for something else makes what we have look that much better.

Or buy in Canada... I know I won't be the popular vote by any means but my business relies exclusively on US contracts paid in US dollars to my bank in Canada. Business is very good. Again sorry....living right on the border I understand it all to well.

Dont fret though because when I win the 500 mil in the PowerBall tonight I will sprinkle a bit of love to my Vette site friends ehehe.

yup, the exchange rate on the dollar stinks :swear: i had to bite the bullet and buy a bunch of stuff for the racecar, really took a beating but no choice. it came down to the old adage - if i wanna play, i gotta pay.

Yup with the dollar low I am holding off purchasing parts as well. Unfortunately that means shifting focus of my rebuild to areas requiring more labour and fewer parts. Luckily I have a lot of work to do so I can wait for parts!

I should have bought more while the dollar was good!

Going to the states next week. I want to get some C7 mods. I'll see how the prices are in the mid west. I think I'm in for some hurt.
