Of course prices are in CAD and no duty or other rubbish! And shipped from your "CANADIAN retailer"

These prices depend on exchange rate and shipping costs!

Yep and that is why in the post it says "estimate"

We received the correct shipping prices from all 3 shippers and they came in 15% higher and the rate of exchange has gone from 1.02 to 1.08 at time of ordering and paying.

BM have also set the MAP prices at above this, but we are negotiating down for you.

The only thing that will ever change these figures now is if the USD goes above 1.10.

I guess it's not that far off. 180Cs form BM directly, $290, +60 shipping to my door. $350 USD

[Aqua-Digital]

Yep and when you take into account the USD conversion rate right now credit cards are using 1.11 as the rate so multiply that figure by 11%!

The prices quoted are CAD here and always will be.

I spoke with BM in depth last night and they are actually setting the MAP at $399USD ($440.00CAD) for the BM150pro we are sticking for now at $349.00CAD.

If the exchange rate goes crazy then we would have to respond, but we are doing everything in our power to make sure the BM stays within range.

What is MAP?

same as MRSP but US version
