I am either stupid or tired. Probably the first one but what does USD mean after the payment price of an auction. It appears after all of my auctions and after my PayPal amount. I tried putting USD in the help box but it didn't seem like anything their would help. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

US Dollars..You know, those little green pieces of paper with George Washington's picture on them. GBP stands for Great Britain Pounds. The USD is used because so many other countries also have the dollar as a national currency.

PayPal added the USD on 10-10-03, the same day they opened PayPal-UK

This a standard now being used by many companies. This is clarify what coinage is being used. We now have the Canadian dollar & the Euro dollar, which have different values.

It became a Paypal necessity when they started the UK version of Paypal. Before that they could simply avoid using the USD designation as everything on Paypal was only in US dollars.
