Here's a hardly scientific quick "Shopping Experiment"
HTS:
3 Deluxes (Arcee, Scorponok, Swerve) $12.99 each
2 Scouts (Nightbeat, Ejector) $7.99 each
Leader Jetfire $44.99
$99.94 total
+ $9.95 shipping charge
+ $25 to Canada
Total: $134.89 USD
conversion to C$ using rate of: 1.1 = C$148.28
Same weight of stuff from an online store like
BBTS:
Shipping is: $25.39 via USPS
(and the price markup over $30 higher than HTS)
(and plus USPS takes X weeks to arrive here)
(and plus potential customs charge which I always get hit with)
Canadian Cost at retail (assuming regular
Walmart pricing here):
C$ 15.92 x3
C$ 9.92 x2
C$ 58.92 x1
C$126.52 sub-total
C$132.85 with GST
