Thanks for the advisory! On the topic of "bummers", there is a real one that has
reared its ugly head again. The suggested NXT retail cost to Canadians is 23.2%
higher than that in the USA! This equates to $65.91 CDN before tax, and  $70.52
CDN after (7% GST) tax. This is predominantly a silent, outdated, currency
exchange rip-off policy continuation by LEGO SHOP at HOME, as recorded for some
time. $CDN are currently $0.88 US, not $0.71 US. PITSCO's, etc... agreements
w/LEGO not to ship into CANADA, has us Canuks really BUMMED!

Eddieeeeeee

(...) Bummer! Well weird I didn't receive anything from LEGO regarding the MDP (at least I did fit the demographic of those selected). -aps (19 years ago, 3-Mar-06, to lugnet.robotics)
