Automaton???

I have a bad memory, have their prices always been in USD or did they really just change it? Really unfortunate if they had to change it

Re: Automaton???

No prices were in Canadian originally, guess he got tired of being compared with the US pricing.

Re: Automaton???

Maybe you're only noticing it now because of the horrid exchange rate?

Re: Automaton???

Ah. I was wondering how Automaton could have the Takara Superion set listed for $125 (what I thought was CAD) when TFSource has it listed for $120 USD.
Makes sense.
I don't blame 'em, considering the crappy exchange.

Re: Automaton???

You can change it to Canadian $ when browsing on the front page but the price will change with the exchange rate. Online shopping has sure taken a hit in the new year.

Re: Automaton???

The cost of doing business always gets passed onto the consumer ... Flat rate shipping 12.99 (plus tax) ... No thanks I'll stick to Asian sellers

Re: Automaton???

I just cancelled a few preorders from TFSource the other day because of the exchange rate. I can't see this encouraging me to buy from Automaton either. Hell, with the increase in retail figure costs I don't really want to buy from anyone.
