Count me in on this as well! I find the price differences when ordering from S@H particularly unfair. I call S@H and talk to the same person who is taking orders from the US, the LEGO set comes out of the same warehouse as those going to the US, but because of the address on the package I get hosed for 20%-30% extra. I normally phone in my orders and make a point of staying on the line to answer their customer survey where I let my opinions be known. However, I'm not holding my breath expecting a big price drop anytime soon. We have become so accustomed to paying higher prices over the past decades of low Canadian dollar values that most people don't think twice about paying the higher price and retailers and companies are taking advantage of it.
