Also annoying is I have to pay in USD. I think my credit company will have a few extra $'s to add on for that privilege. To top this off I can't group buy so it all counts as individual fees on my card. I think buying books from Amazon is currently way too expensive for me because of all this. Will have to take my business elsewhere.

You can buy a gift card and apply that to your account. You'll pay the one time service fee to your credit card company and then all your Kindle book purchases would come out of the gift card bypassing additional credit card fees.
If you buy a lot of items from Amazon, I suggested you set up a separate account for your Kindle. If you keep the Kindle on the same account the next time you purchase a non-kindle book item, the money will be taken from the gift card first.
