Me and my friend were bored one day and discovered something about the currency exchange rates being off.
 
If you compare the 10000+1500 pack (last one, most expensive) with different currencies such as USD to EUR, EUR to CAD, AUS to CAD, and other currencies. Chinese currency, HKD is 800 for the pack - as cheap as 89.8 EUR, so it equals the proper amount if EUR = CAD...but it doesn't.
 
11500 for EUR = $100 EUR. For Canadian, it's $133.49. CAD to EUR should be around $88-89, but it's off as you can see.
 
What he thinks is that they just submitted an algorithm of 1-/+(exchange rate)=new amount. So, EUR being $100 x +33% (because EUR to CAD is x .67 or so) = $133, which is the CAD amount.
