Hey, forget about complaining about too high prices outside the US to
S@H. Lego ist totally deaf on that ear. Besides, $CDN59.99 is about
US$49.79, which is still cheaper than our EUR39.99, which in turn is
about US$51.19. And the stuff is being produced over here! When drilling
for an answer, the only lame excuse we Europeans usually get for being
overcharged is "VAT inclusion". As if we had VATs in the range of 28-78%...
