Is there a way to see the final total in real dollars of an ebay transaction?

I bought some stuff for my church off Ebay, and I need to give them the receipt for tax purposes and to get paid back. Problem is, Ebay only shows the total in USD. I need to know what I actually paid. If I look at the Paypal receipt, nothing makes sense. I think it ends up taking part of the money from the Paypal account and then the other part from the credit card but none of the numbers jive. I just want to see a total in Canadian Dollars of what I actually paid so I have something to show what I actually paid including shipping and everything.

Is there a way to get that info?

oh wait, they should probably tell you that, and it would be hilarious.

When I go to eBay and just click on My Ebay -> Purchase History it shows the "order total" at the top right part of each item in the list.

I just tried logging into ebay.ca with my account and I see it and it shows everything in Canadian dollars.

Yeah the issue is I don't think that's really enough for accounting purposes. Like I don't think the CRA would accept that when they are claiming taxes. But I ended up just taking a screenshot of that, and then I included the receipts in USD anyway... hopefully that is enough to satisfy the accountant lords at the CRA.

The ebay.ca site doesn't report in Canadian dollars? Or are you on ebay.com?

I'm on ebay.ca but I find whenever it's a US seller it still shows in USD in some places, and the final invoicing is all in USD as well. It shows in CAD when buying and in the summary though so I ended up just screenshotting order summary. I just don't think that counts as an invoice as far as accounting goes though but I'll give them that anyway with the other stuff that's in USD and hopefully it's ok.
