I'm normally based in the UK and shop in British Pounds.

Just been to Singapore and I was, as expected, presented with the Singapore version of the Kobostore with SG $ prices displayed. So far, so good. But when I came to checkout the prices were then changed to the more expensive standard British Pounds ones and my basket was exactly the one I get at home.

Is it possible to buy in the local currency, at local prices, when visiting another country that has its own version of the Kobo store? If so, what was I doing wrong?
