Alert! Alert! The Yen is Getting Hammered!
« on: November 18, 2014, 03:26:56 AM »
Which is great news for those of us who like sci-fi model kits and such for wargaming!  :D


The Yen is getting beat up in the exchange rates right now versus the Euro, the Dollar, and the Pound Sterling, so now is a good time to put in your orders at HobbyLink Japan:

I'm taking shameless advantage to expand my space fleet from the classic Space battleship Yamato line and the new Yamato 2199 line, as the prices are more than a little ridiculous to be perfectly frank.

C'mon you apes! Ya wanna live forever?!  8)

I sometimes feel like Lead could use a current exchange rate topic to keep track of when to buy where.  ;D

We could but it would be limited to historical exchange rates prior to 1989  :D
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

google gives you the exchange rate graph going back as far as you will ever need. The thing is other than buying when it is actually low the only use a graph would be is to try predict what its going to do and plan purchases in advance. Honestly throwing darts at a chart would be as accurate.
Like a throw of the dice, its almost like a wargame. Actually I seem to remember something about play by mail games in the old days using stock market numbers for dice rolls?

I know the old Avalon Hill games could, though I think the instructions were usually in The General.

Damn, that WAS a blast from the past!
