I live in the Seattle area and I am wondering about the pricing of LEGO in
Canada taking into consideration the current exchange rate.  If I was going
to Vancouver would I be able to find some great deals made even better by
the exchange rate?



Scott,

Send me some prices of some sets, and I will get you canadian prices... then
you can figure the exchange.  It is a good bet that they will be much
cheaper with exchange.  I know some stores up here give you 40%.  The only
thing you might have to think about is duties and taxes in the US, but I
don't know anything about your customs regulations on bringing stuff back to
the states.  I know that you (as a foreighner) can apply to get some of the
canadian taxes that you pay up here.

I offtened wondered about something like this... i am sure the Lego Group
can't anticipate dollar fluctuations when they set their retail prices.

LINC,

Ps.  I have some American and Canadian S@H catalogs at home,  I will send
you an email tonight with the two prices... keeping in mind that both will
be elevated because it is shop at home.
