50% chance you probably did something wrong or stupid and are blaming the game.

That exchange rate does seem on par with the Canadian -> US dollar.

To be fair that has nothing to do with AE, that's just the economy

yeah only thing PMG could really do is put a disclaimer that prices are in the USD, or have drop down menu to change the price accordingly to the country of residence

Unfortunately we have nothing to do with world wide exchange rates or credit card fees. If you buy something for X dollars on our site we get X dollars minus any fees the processing costs.

25 USD is like 34.60 CAD. I assume the other part was a fee from the card. Most pre-paids have fees to use. That's how they make money.

Canadian dollar is pretty bleh compared to USD and has been for a while, unfortunately. Many online retailers are having to impose pricing changes just for canadians + australians as the disparity is becoming an issue.
