Converted to Euro (since Diego is based in Europe) that goes to 5,300 Euro + 200 euro of Indiegogo fee, which is our target to collect.
Looking up prices on amazon US and then doing a straight conversion to EUR is likely to result in anunderestimate of the cost for a european of replacing their stuff. There is VAT to consider (though if they are a VAT registered buisness they may be able to claim this back, not sure how a VAT claimback would interact with a donation like this though) and also the fact that equipment tends to cost more on this side of the pond even before VAT.
