[QUOTE="FDP-jason, post: 77332, member: 238"] [b]It's Worth It![/b] Unfortunately, that price is not far off the mark when you take in the 1.55-1.6ish conversion rate. Perhaps the store is tacking on a 50 cent surcharge for whatever reason (protecting their investment a little). Also, tacking on a CDN price will not do much to alter your stores policies. Wizards probably sells directly to the Canadian distributors and cuts them a little slack on the obnoxious exchange rate allowing them to price a little better regionally. Through White Wolf the same story may not exist (I am not entirely sure) which means if the store [I]mistakenly[/I] pays attention to the CDN price (which is priced lower than the equivalent US price) they may actually [I]lose[/I] money on each sale. Our products will not be in there for long with that kind of tomfoolery. These are just theories and not tautolgies. I would just be plain worried tacking on a CDN price to a product when I do not control the payment and charges along the distribution channel which is largely settled in the US market. Take a look at the vendors which are alot bigger than us outside of WOTC - Atlas and White Wolf. They settle for the one price in US currency. I can assure you it is not because they ignore their Canadian neighbours and the market they represent -it just plain makes less headaches. If it helps any -the deal of the century is [b]Beyond All Reason[/b]. That is crammed into 72 pages for $10.95. :D [/QUOTE]
