Credit Cards have bad conversion rates, too (arguably worse than PayPal sometimes): they'll average the monthly conversion rate to calculate yours. So if you buy something at the start of the month and then the CND tanks the rest of the month, you get hit with awful conversion.

PayPal moves slowly and have a built-in conversion fee (as do credit cards) but at least you know the exact conversion you're getting the day of your purchase.
