And people saying it's back where it was don't know what they're talking about. It's still depressed and unlikely to get back to where it was any time soon.

US oil price had dropped so fuel will stay as is
I hate the disagree with you.
For example, OcUK buy items in USD currency.
Day 1 - OcUK agree to pay $200 for a GPU. The Purchase Order could be raised on a day that the rate is 1.50 and the REAL cost to OcUK is £133.33
Day 3 - the stock lands with OcUK at a rate of 1.50 still, cost is still estimated at £133.33... payment of these items are due to supplier in 30 days time from now (Day 33)
Day 4 - customer pays £140+VAT. £6.66 profit expected.
Day 5-31 - rate remains at 1.50
Day 32 (23rd june voting day) - rate crashes to 1.35
Day 33 (24th June today )- invoice for good delivered on Day 3 and some sold on day 4 is due for payment but the rate has dropped to 1.40 so $200 is actually £142.85. So OcUK selling to you on Day 4 is a loss now.
Note OcUK will still ahve some stock available, and the cost is £142.85 not the expected £133.33, so OcUK adjust pricing to reflect the changed GBP cost.
Day 33 - OcUK adjust the pricing up on stock in warehouse as they paid more in ££££ than the expected price when the goods were delivered.
This is the fundamentals of how it works, companies can lose thousands of pounds in exchange rate changes. It is always a risk when items are purchased in one currency and sold in another and payment is 30 day or 60 days after delivery. The cost price in the selling currency is not fixed until its paid for. So the goods in the warehouse can change in cost value until paid for...

Here's an idea.
Pay for your goods the day they are ordered like everyone else![]()
what if the exchange rate comes back to how it was by the time OcUk settles its bill, will those customers who are paying extra today get a rebate?

It's good of you to explain thank you.
