For domestic it says NZD okay and only via bank transfer. For international
the only currency I accept is Canadian. They chose NZD. I am worried if I send
the invoice the payment onsite will let them pay in NZD. And in fact only let
them pay in NZD now that they chose that.

??

Yes if they choose NZD then when they go to pay on PayPal they will pay in NZD
(whatever currency they pay with, the buyer will be charged the currency conversion
fee when they pay so you receive the correct amount no matter the original currency
used) but I’m curious as to the issue as you are based in NZD so don’t you prefer
everyone to pay in NZD if possible?

I set up my paypal account when i was living in Canada (15 years). The conversion
fees into a NZ bank account are silly. Don't get that many international
orders. So, don't prefer NZD for international orders.

Figure cancelling the order is the only way forward.

I don’t have any pending orders so can’t test it out but have you tried manually
changing and saving the currency code on the pending order perhaps?

Or since I somehow forgot you can go to this link

https://www.bricklink.com/orderEdit.asp?ID=XXXXXXXX

(Replaced X with order number)
And you can change it there. Sorry this didn’t cross my mind earlier as I don’t
have any pending orders I didn’t see the option to change is as available there
so it slipped my mind. In the future the easiest way to access this is to select
customize display on your orders page then enable edit order icon and then you
click the 2 papers after the order number and you can change order details there

Wouldn't you be better off changing your PayPal currency to NZD? You are
living there after all. Come to think of it, are you legally obligated in some
way to accept currency in the currency that is your current country of residence?
