I agree Mike. Have bought many things in the US on trips down south, and even after exchange, still cheaper on the whole. Paying less tax in some jurisdictions doesn't hurt either. As for a common North American currency is concerned, don't hold your breath too long. This may or may not occur at some point in the future, but not for at least ten years or more if it does. My comments to donkeyman are concerned with what is the case today. I've bought lots of stuff through US online retailers, and I'll tell you, the prices are good and the selection compared to BII and other Canadian companies is superior. And that's a fact. Many friends of mine also prefer US online retailers, and should they expand north within the next few months or year, Canadian e-tailers like BII will suffer. It's the same story all around. Wal-Mart versus Zellers; Blockbuster Video versus Rogers or the local video store etc. etc. The list goes on and on. Donkeyman and others need to look at this stuff and get beyond all the hype.
