Thanks for the link!

You're quite welcome  :-)

 Reasonable price, as far as I can tell - US$20-25 for the Europe and World maps. I’ve never ordered anything from a non-dollar-denominated vendor, though. Do you know how that works?

I've ordered (far too) many things from UK and other overseas vendors....it's easy! 

In this case they accept either PayPal or a credit card, so the monetary conversions are done at the bank based upon the rates for the day they receive the transaction.  I think that in most cases they outline the exchange rate and all relevant data on your sales receipt as well as your card statement.

One thing that banks are great at is saying "YES!" to financial transactions involving other people's money, and I've never had the slightest bit of trouble with international purchases.

That sounds simple enough.

These maps are the sort of thing my children really enjoy. Even if the translations aren't unarguable, they'll have a good time looking at them and trying to figure out what the "real map" name is.
