Well, if she meant Namibian dollars, it would be a pretty good value (about 6.8 N$ to 1 US$, or roughly US$87.20).
But I kind of like the idea of politely asking her, somehow, about her price in Zimbabwean dollars. Although the "official" rate was set at 30,000 Zi$ to 1 US$ in September (at which the saw would cost about two U.S. cents), the real exchange rate had dropped to 4.5 million Zi$/1 US$ by mid-November.
