Just in case you don't know Robert now takes Paypal. I like this for internet payments though isn't so good for foreign currency exchange. The reason for mentioning here however, is that some of you may not be aware of Paypal credit; in the UK if you spend over £99 in one transaction, you get interest free credit for 4 months, I would imagine it will be a similar amount in other currencies if it's offered. They sometimes do longer one off interest free deals too.

My advice is to not take a credit for thinks like synthesizers or any other stuff except for a house or flat or maybe a car, but even cars I don't. My father always said:" If you can't save it up before you buy it, how can you do it afterwards and that's the right way for me personally.

" If you can't save it up before you buy it, how can you do it afterwards. Very wise advice. That's why I only take credit for the things I can save to, so I don't have to wait half a year or more to buy It. I can have it now, and enjoy it longer, while paying the credit. I like it more than waiting several months puting the same money into jar I would put to pay the credit. But that's just me Cheers!

Completely disagree when it comes to interest free credit, as long as you can afford the payments. Completely agree when paying interest! I bought my last car on interest free credit, I had the cash but was the same deal as it was manufacturer finance so put the money in a tax free savings account, raided when I needed to to make the payment for the next 4 years; made quite a bit of dosh for a minor bit of hassle...
