Good to know
Australian prices include GST, while US prices are shown before sales tax, so converting a price tag alone does not compare like with like.

How do I convert USD to AUD?
Multiply the amount in US dollars by the USD/AUD rate. The converter above fetches the day’s reference rate and works it out both ways.
What is the symbol for the Australian dollar?
$ (A$). The Australian dollar (AUD) is divided into 100 cents and issued by the Reserve Bank of Australia.
Is the Australian dollar fixed to the US dollar?
No. Its exchange-rate arrangement: floating. The rate therefore changes from day to day.

This is the mid-market reference rate. Banks, card networks and transfer services convert at their own rate, usually with a margin and sometimes a fee — compare the amount you actually receive.
