  Re: What's up with the 2006 price hike in Canada?
 
OK, I've got a German retail price for the NXT now: EUR269. This includes a 16% sales tax, and so it is amazingly close to the american price, although still somewhat higher. Yours, Christian (19 years ago, 10-Jan-06, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.loc.ca)
