MSRP conversions

I thought I'll poke fun at my local currency this evening. With COVID19 and all of the other issues we are experiencing.

If I convert to USD, the MSRP are as follows:
- 116500 $9300 (was 8300 before the price increases)
- Pepsi $6500

The OP39 I bought last month: $3700

One can argue that even at MSRP or less they are good hedging instruments

ZAR by the way

Even at these low rates that would give my BLNR a fantastic upside selling to USD - but I do like it. Think I would miss it

Yup. I had a look at chrono24 and always wondered why it was always higher than what I've purchased for.
