CURRENCY CHANGE

26 February 2011

Historically the US $ (USD) has been very convenient for international trade. But for over 12 months the USD has been so weak that it has hurt AMP. We have now changed to the Euro (EUR).

ALL PRICES ARE NOW IN EUROs.

We will maintain our reasonable prices for you, the modeller. Conversion rates are available at xe.com (also on the sidebar).
