I haven't used Pay-Pal for years since my account was hacked and drained. Would I be correct in guessing that PP adjusts charges/credits to account for exchange rates? Another forumite and I were working on a sale from me to him in Canada but the deal was more trouble than it was worth. He didn't want the hassle of getting a check for me in US Dollars and I didn't want to take the hit of converting a check in Loonies to US Bucks at my bank.
Is there an easy way to do this?

Not really afaik. All banks and services likes to charge for their troubles and pp is no exception. They have pretty poor conversion rates usually in my experience.
