Does anyone know why it is so darn expensive to ship this set???  I am in Canada
and the site says that it would cost 80 Canadian dollars to ship the set.  I know
the box is big...but $80 big!!  Maybe I am missing something.  Other than the
shipping cost I would order one right now.  I can't find any of these sets where I
am.

Thanks,

Rob G.
