Let the user pick the reference Store #2

Since trading is mostly done with people on another country, and regional pricing varies so much, I think it would be useful for each user to define which store is going to be used as a reference for pricing display and calculations.

So if I'm trading ROW keys/gifts I'd likely use EU or US stores, since they are consistent in most cases.

But occasionally picking the particular store of your fellow trader instead may allow for a better insight on how your offer will look to him.

(Obvious note just in case: this is not the same as applying a currency conversion obtained from the web, you actually have to get the pricing for a particular store.)

I'm not sure on how to implement such a thing, but from the script's standpoint this might be as simple as appending ?cc=eu -for instance- to the game URL, but it only seems to work if you're not logged in to Steam.

YMMV, though. Thanks for considering.

Yeah, the cc trick works, and your remark about it only working when you're not logged in is also correct. I'll see if I can't add it in. :)
