If you are using a credit card, you need to make sure they process the sale in Pesos, so you get the conversion rate of your CC company. If not the place can apply their own conversion rate, of whatever they want, and then bill it in USD.
We agreed to a price of $15 USD but then they rang it up on the credit card at 300 pesos.
