I've used this one myself a few times in America saying, "Nice to see you again." One of my favourite British shows is now Come Dine With Me where four or five strangers come together for a week's worth of dinners at each others homes. Each person takes a turn impressing the others in a bid to win a 1,000 pound prize. Oooh! The first night is always the most awkward. Now, you might not think this is strange but I sure did. Person A would walk up to Person B and say, "Hi, I'm Ellen." *hand shake* And Person B would respond by saying, "Hi Ellen, I'm Daniel. Nice to see you." I let it pass the first few times I heard it and finally I was like, "What...?" So... "nice to see you" = "nice to meet you"!
