Don Paul Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 Looks like all these cars are listed in IQD with an aproximate 1:1 dollar ratio. Can someone tell me if they just loped off 3 zeros for the listings or are these the true IQD prices? http://www.mredy.com/?mod=search&lo=kom_68&l=ar&bid=8368&page=1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Paul Posted January 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 (edited) I used a translation program for that page and it doesnt say that prices are listed in thousands of dinars anywhere on the page. Guess what Im asking if there is someone there who knows what the deal is on these prices? (Im trying to do my OWN research on RV values and not regurgitated GURU "intel") Edited January 6, 2011 by Don Paul 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF you want to know the real deal in any country, just gander thru the classifieds. Im thinking they just dont list stuff in millions of dinars to save space probably(??), but some of our contacts THERE should clarify this fairly quickly. Otherwise... im getting in the arab used car business real quick :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUST A MATTER OF TIME Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 Zebari Heads Committee to Protect Iraqi Funds Abroad Posted on 05 January 2011. Tags: Chapter Seven, Chapter VII, Security Council, United Nations, Zebari A senior Finance Ministry official said on Wednesday that Iraq’s Foreign Minister, Hoshyar Zebari, will head a governmental committee developing mechanisms to protect Iraqi funds deposited in foreign banks after the UN Security Council resolution to withdraw its protection of those funds at the end of June. Diya Khayyoun, the Undersecretary of the Finance Ministry, told AKnews that the committee includes the Secretariats of the Council of Ministers and the Finance Ministry. “The Commission began its work by implementing measures that provide the necessary protection for the Iraqi funds, preserving them from manipulation in certain countries,” he explained. The UN Security Council voted unanimously to lift of three key sanctions imposed on Iraq following the Saddam Hussein-led Kuwaiti invasion of 1990. Alongside the lifting of sanctions, the Security Council decided to extend their protection of Iraqi funds in foreign bank accounts until June 2011. Since the sanctions were imposed, Iraq had been listed under United Nations Chapter 7 which declares the country a threat to international peace and security http://www.iraq-businessnews.com/2011/01/05/zebari-heads-committee-to-protect-iraqi-funds-abroad/ WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rad Mule Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 Looks like all these cars are listed in IQD with an aproximate 1:1 dollar ratio. Can someone tell me if they just loped off 3 zeros for the listings or are these the true IQD prices? http://www.mredy.com/?mod=search&lo=kom_68&l=ar&bid=8368&page=1 I think they did "LOP" (bad choice of words) the zeros of the listing would be my guess. I would place an order today if I am wrong. I would not look to deep into this. The Hummer is 20,000 IQD, but my gut tells me it should be 20,000,0000 20000000 = 17100.59 IQD USD 1 IQD = 0.00 USD 1 USD = 1169.55 IQD 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife spent an hour on-line chatting with some dude in baghdad last night, only to find out that he wanted USD, not IQD. Even though it says IQD. He told her in the fine print, that is not translated... it says USD. They are on to us, and this is a marketing tool they are using. Beware deals that are to good to be true!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
