The script now has combined support for Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk!

fuxxi, I'm glad you like it!

The script for Amazon UK is probably not as recent as this one. The .com script is easy to change:

1. Change the @include's to use .co.uk instead of .com
2. Change USD to GBP.
3. Change $ to £ in the following manner (this is IMPORTANT for the new version of the script):

-var currencyFromSymbol = "\$";
-var currencyFromSymbolForRegex = "\\$";
+var currencyFromSymbol = "\£";
+var currencyFromSymbolForRegex = "\£";

Should I maintain a seperate script for Amazon UK?

nevermind, i found the script for the .uk website :)

Hi, great script! Is it also available for amazon.co.uk?

If anyone subscribes to this feed, I just updated the script.
The converted price now appears right next to the original price. Download away!

It would be nice with a choice to place the currency symbol to either the right or the left of the text.

Hi. I want to love this script too but I don't know how. Is there a beginner's guide to how to run a script? I've installed it. I just need to know how to run it.

however, i managed to find a working old version! :)

The script is not installing :-( The script contents show a Rails error inside some HTML. This appears to be localized to your script and not to the site in general. Any ideas?

Alex, fixed!

Claudia: Are you reffering to Amazon pages? Is there a website where you see two foreign currencies at the same time?

 
Alex G Wei User

It works! Almost on all occasions where prices are displayed.

The only place I complain about is that when displaying a wish list, the prices are not converted. I viewed the source code and the script and found that the prices in the wishlist are not the first node...

I love this Script. Is easy to configure (just click in Tools/User Script Commands and change your local currency) and search by Yahoo the tax rate so you don't need to worry about it.
Wish there were a similar script for converting from various diferent currencys (since local currency don't change so much, but i wanted to see prices of various currencys converted to my own, specially Japanese Yen).
