    0.99cents USD = $1.19 AUD

    I bought Realmaze3D yesterday and when I checked my bank transfers, it said that I transfered $3.38 to iTunes.

    Well whatever it is, it sure as hell isn't GST (Goods & Services Tax). That only increases it by 10%, not double the price.

    Any ideas?

    US$0.99 purchases should be AUD$1.19.

    Check your purchase history and your credit card statement. If the amount you were charged is incorrect then query the amount with Apple. AUD$3.38 sounds like a strange amount for an app or game.

    As I said, it's definitely the wrong amount. I've enquired with Apple and I should get a response within the day. Thanks for your help!

    perhaps if something did go wrong, or you get no help on it or anything, get a voucher with cash because they take the correct amount off. It shows up in the credit window in iTunes, so it's an immediate thing to notice. That is strange how it did $3.38.. sure it wasn't $2.38?
