1 week ago I was suprised that Polish Post didn't accepted package to USA. They holded receiving any shipments to US except letters with documents so I went quickly to Fedex service point and sent at twice cost of it just to get rid of it. US customs has processed it at Thursday 28th August so day before new custom rules came into effect.

it is not. it is widely common at least in all Europe

[CHips]

I use an English Locale in my Computers and cannot correctly enter an amount with a Comma since some automatic check happens as I type the digits. I guess what happens using a Comma Locale is that it does take such inputs (and would reject something with a .) so everything appears fine with correct calculations of the Fee/Total when the Payer types and submits the Payment, but then the Avicc Server receives the "XX,YY" string and tries to interpret it with its own Locale, which truncates the YY Cents since it does not like the Comma Lol
Pretty nasty Bug :p
