If you go to mtgox.com (warning, clearnet) it should give you a live update of what 1BTC is worth. Right now it is about $54 but yesterday they were worth 70!

I think it's pretty easy, just requires a bit of time.

Different websites will always show slightly different conversion rates. That said. one of the better sites to use in my experience is http://coinmill.com/BTC_USD.html

I'm confusedd on this for example something on sr is listed at 44 bucks and on the bc site i used i entered in 46 by time they take the fee it's 45.xxxxxx. That should be enough to cover it right??
