I have never been in there yet when they've had the 1 gallon jug because it's too expensive to keep it on the shelf and for some reason most times they can't get it regularly. At BRS, I buy the 7 lbs tub that makes 7-8 gallons for $17.99. For me to purchase 7 gallons of my LFS product it would cost me around $900. I just can't afford to shop local (if an hour's drive is considered local).

$900 is a LOT of money, but as Cal_sti wrote...there are options.

This is a rough breakdown when using UPS ands shipping the NAC7...could be off a little.
duty $10.20
gst $13.09
coversion $5.20
brokerage $43.98
Disbursmant $6.61
So you need to add about $78, so if my calculations are correct your $208 NAC 7 will cost you about $285.
And you still have to buy a converter for the 220V.
