Hi
When did you pay that price ? Why should your Alzheimer factor be better
than mine ? - just joking. I never sold them for that price even when
the exchange rate was in favour to the USD. The price is 50.- EUR

An exact USD price cannot be given as the exchange
50.- silver 75.- gold, shipping below 8.- EUR, multiply by factor 1,35
get the USD.
