VERY interested in the reason this time.
when i asked why the vortech powerheads were more expensive in Canada after the dollar had been above parity for MONTHS the answer i got was because the distributors had bulk purchased thousands of units when the dollar was below parity and were passing the "negative savings" onto us.
simple lesson in economics ladies and gents - when you have a fluctuating dollar in a bad economy - DONT stock up heavily on product unless its in your favour.
Hell, i have been shopping on Ebay for over 7 years and i still watch the dollar when making a big purchase.
