  Re: S@H Exchange Rate?!?! (was Re: BNSF high balls it!)
 
And what is worse/will keep prices up for LEGO in Canada, is that alot of the wholesale prices we have to pay seem to be set at 1.5 of USD prices, so very high. Some are coming down, but not nearly as far as the currency has come down. So LEGO in (...) (20 years ago, 6-Nov-04, to lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.dear-lego)
