It sounds like the problem is with the Citibank Mastercard. I use
American Express in all my dealings with the jig store and have never
been charged such an outrageous fee for currency conversion. I don't
think it is fair to blast the jig store for something that Citibank is
doing to you.

Hard to say, I have a Citibank Mastercard and recently made an Australian
purchase for $206 IIRC the conversion rate was $6. If Mark's conversion
was $20, did he spend $686 for his Akeda, I hope not.


I have been buying parts from both the jig store and tool king with no
issues. In an emergency, Whiteside makes both collars and router bits
that fit a standard PC base. Check them out if you need one and they
are out of stock at your current supplier.
