maybe im just privileged ameriscum but i don't really have issues ordering stuff from other countries, does canada just have archaic laws when it comes to customs?

We don't struggle to find it, we just get a hidden 20-50% go fuck yourself inflation tax cause fuck canucks.

Here's a prime example...
HD6xx's from massdrop 200$ USD or 599$ CAD from amazon.

https://www.amazon.ca/Sennheiser-HD-650-Headphones/dp/B00018MSNI

As of today 200$ USD = 254 CAD roughly.

This happens with a LOT of tech unfortunately.
Hell even a few years back when CAD was higher then USD I was still paying more for shit.

Ordering from other countries haha hah.

Did you factor the shit exchange we face?

can you exchange your CAD to USD first then? Or does the inflation kick in when it realizes where it's shipping to

The inflation is generally worked into the price of the Canadian store.
Very few update when they realize your canadian they just take your USD or simply don't ship to you at all.
The boarder adds its customs tax after which its still cheaper then canadian sites generally.

673 USD = CAD 856.16
So for that item there's 40$ mark up for no reason other then marketing looks.

207 USD = 263 CAD not 536.75
So for a product like this monitor its cheaper to have a friends buy it and mail me it then just buying it.

my friend was looking for headphones recently, and he was about to get the 6xx from massdrop. But he didnt wanna wait til march for shipping.
I actually found him the 600's for $349 CAD w/ amazon and got his the next day

Wot. If you ever see that again pm me ill get fg and dish you some.

Well maybe I shouldn't indulge. My 598s are always good so are dt 770s

Thats not to bad but still cheaper to just buy from the USA generally which is fucked up imo.



Just buy em off massdrop... cheaper and newer version.

sure, the 650 was also 399.

They might do it again for boxing day.

Is it after skipping to almost the Arctic plus customs and sales tax?

Amazon is free even if I'm in the Arctic circle
