Is selling domains at uniregistry in USD a barrier?

I've listed a dozen domains in the uniregistry market and have had a few enquiries though no sales as yet.

As the market is only in US dollars and buy-it-now and offers are made in USD do you think that might be a barrier for sales of uk domains?

For instance, this morning someone from the UK enquired about my ThamesMarina.co.uk domain. Via uniregistry I sent them an email with an offer price that was in USD. So the end user will have to do the exchange rate maths and also consider how they might pay in USD.

Anyone sold UK domains at uniregistry? Or do you have any thoughts?
 
Why couldn't you just send your email with an offer price in pounds sterling? Nothing in the Uniregistry system prevents that.

We have sold loads via DNS and always go back with a price we want in GBP.

This does not affect sales for us
