HELP! HELP! HELP! Price Different in Express Checkout

Hi.
Just went live and our first attempted order was a customer teling us the amount ($74.95 including postage) came to ~$120 when using the paypal express checkout option (it also added $10 for postage instead of $5).
I tried the proceeding through the checkout steps and went through paypal at the end instead and the amount was fine. I then tried to use the first express checkout option like the customer did and got the same error. Not sure why its doubling the postage either.
Please help
Craig

Sounds like it's doing a currency conversion or something? Have you restricted your PayPal module to a certain currency?
Without a whole lot more information, your guess is better than mine ...

Hi thanks for the quick reply.
The currency is set to AUD in the Paypal Express Checkout module but if this is wrong why would the price calculate correctly in Paypal when not using the express checkout option?

Just tried ordering a 10 cent test product and the amount still shows as $120 including tax of $10.91 plus postage of $10 (normally $5)!
