a product that would cost me equivalent to 250 CAD in the US would cost me 350 CAD once it hits canada. How fucked is that?

Anyone able to find http://www.koolance.com/products/pro...&category_id=2 or http://www.koolance.com/products/pro...&category_id=2 in canada for under 350 for first and under 250 for second? THis is driving me nuts.

Customs does indeed suck balls in every way. They make you go through all this bullshit and cost you all this money for your legit stuff, but they can't even stop the stuff they're meant to be stopping.

So much for Free Trade huh?

I never buy anything from the US due to the hassles.. although with the US dollar in the Toilet, it's starting to be a little tempting.
