Foreign currency

I booked a HIE in Taiwan and then found it on Orbitz for $12 cheaper.

I called in and they would not honor the claim because the price on Orbitz was in USD. She told me the 3rd party site had to show the room in the local currency. What travel site prices in Taiwan dollars? So in other words, the BRG is rendered meaningless in countries where there are no online sites?
