We get the shaft in Canada. Our dollar has been within a few cents of the USD on one side it the other for more than 5 years and we still pay significantly more that United States MSRP on most products. I guess other parts of the world get it even worse, but it's still annoying as all hell.

Yeah that does really suck. How bad would it be for you guys to buy US, and then get it back into CAN? Is that even possible?

We could buy in the US. But after taxes, duties ect... It would probably be the same price.

Confirmed. I looked into getting my FZ8 in the US but after the red tape importing and the import fees, this tariff and that tax, and paying for a safety inspection & blah blah blah the most I stood to save was $500 but I live a good 6 hr from the nearest dealer in Buffalo Ny, so I'd have to consider one night in hotel and fuel for a buddy's pickup to pick it up.... The savings quickly dissolve. I believe it's set up that way to discourage the whole importing thing.
