I am not rich, so I don't care who gets the end result as long as it's the best price.
If someone in Canada gets on board and realizes the dollar is on par, maybe they would stop over charging. Just my opinion.
I'm pro Canada, but more pro-money in the bank.
This is obvious to most people.
Anyone who justified spending 25% more, please send me your money, cause you don't need it. Lol.

The dollar being at par helps but that's not the only issue. The big issue is duty, shipping and brokering. The JBJ products are made in China so we pay 7% duty on that right off the bat, then we have to ship them here and pay brokering fees. Any NON US product cost us Canadians 7% more sine US made are duty free.
With that being said, the JBJ would have cost you about $110 at our store (free shipping over $175).
Ok, some products maaaaay be cheaper in the US, but not by very much at all.
