To be quite honest I was totally shocked at the fact that there was only a $500.00 difference in 46,000 lbs of dry goods.
What this means is that we should be paying the same price American hobbyists pay for aquarium products.
The fact is we are paying substantially more.
I checked out a few other things as well. (quickly and I am no expert)
Seattle store lease rates are the same as Greater Vancouver.
Electricity is cheaper here.
Average US salaries are $12,00 per hour
Truck fuel is higher here.
There is no justification for paying higher prices here whasoever.
