A UK seller listed something I want for £50. What's that in dollars?

At the rates I found, £50 comes to roughly $66–67 US. The sources I checked put the pound at about 1.33 dollars, with small differences because each one shows a slightly different moment and rate. Wise lists £50 at $66.63 and XE at $66.80, both mid-market rates, which are the midpoint between buying and selling and not what your bank or card will charge.

What you actually pay will usually be a bit more. Card issuers often add a foreign-transaction fee of around 3%, and a currency exchange or payment service may build a margin into its rate. If the seller takes payment through PayPal or a similar service, check whether it converts the amount for you and what rate it uses. Comparing the final charge on your statement with the mid-market figure will show you the real difference.

The pound moves daily, so if you're paying in the next few days, check the live rate just before you buy. For the exact figure, the XE currency converter lets you enter £50 and see the current mid-market rate.
