Here is a little bit of info for you, after testing the ingame Withdraw System from PED to Real Life Banks.
In the Entropia Withdrawal System, wishing to withdraw PEDs to your designated bank account, you are given two options:
1) Transfer the PEDs into your national currency. (MindArk exchanges currency for you)
2) Transfer the PEDs in US$. (Your own bank convert currency if necessary).
I just did my test with 2 x 10.000 PED. One for each option - just to check the conversion differences.
Result came in this weekend, after 56 days of transfer.
Not surprisingly, option #2 gave me approximately 50 US$ more worth my national currency (in my case DKK). This amount equals a 5% difference in the MindArk currency exchange rates, counter the official bank rates. In favor of MindArk.
A small difference may be due to currency influxes in the given 56 day period, but since US$/DKK rates have risen only by 0.6% since February, I think we can rule out the economy crisis.
So heads up to all of you, who do not live in the US and wish to get as much value for your withdrawal as possible. Do not let MindArk exchange your currencies, unless you have even worse banks in your own country.
