I find it odd how "exclusives" in one country end up being the same "exclusives" in a different country with a different company. Not so exclusive afterall huh?

From wikipedia

Quote:

Future Shop was purchased for C$580 million by Best Buy on November 4, 2001. The company was renamed Best Buy Canada Ltd.—a wholly owned subsidiary of its American parent.

In the end it's all the same company.

I posted on the FS forum asking if they would be doing a price drop with USA being $34.99 and on their site its $64.99.

They deleted my post.

...so I guess thats a no.

Yeah they rule that forum with an iron fist. You can't even think of a competitor without getting a warning

But hey maybe you woke them up because GoT blu-rays are now $49.99. Still $15 above US but a step in right direction

Thats a bit better... But still if you order off Amazon.com and ship it to canada, its cheaper.

actually for me, i could drive down to the usa Best Buy and pick up one of these exclusive covers and the cost of it plus gas would be cheaper! haha

Still not sure what I am going to do...

I've heard tons of good things about this show is it worth a blind buy if I enjoyed The new Conan and Clash of the Titans?
