Depending on price, id be interested in a group buy as well.

They ship FedEx (2-day), so that's why their charges start @ $30 USD. While it's expensive for 1 item, it does not increase much at all for more items or heavier items.

If you find the right coupon (20% off) and get enough items, then you can save enough that it comes-out to very close to our regular store prices.

Hasbro Toy shop is ok to Canada then? Is the Brainstorm going to be on there u think? Do they limit the number of pieces u can order?

I have a friend in Texas that is going to check for me and find me a few if possible for me and family, depending on how easy it is for him to get access to them he said he'd be willing to help out other Canadians if he is able to. I dont know if he'd be up for a group buy as there might be a limit to the # of items and he doesnt have tonnes of cash to put in upfront for everyone, but if he is successful I could put people in touch with him. I'll see what he comes up with and pricing...Hope that can be a win-win for a few of us and for him as well.

Cheers,

I ordered 2 online yesterday, so I'll have a spare that will go up on my BST page when it arrives.

OK cool no customs, but you still find $30 (usd) shipping + hst/Gst as a viable option?
This is still atrociously high.

In the end I cancelled my amiami order and a bud in the u.s. found 2. Split shipping with a friend. On the way woot!

I got 1 from local Walgreen, which I will bring back to Toronto. Anyone interested? I'm looking to sell at 40 CAD to cover my time and gas hunting for this guy, prefer pick up from Richmond Hill.
