[QUOTE="Fortkentdad, post: 343934, member: 24285"] Yes, our dollar is only worth $ .92 US [URL="http://www.bestbuy.com/site/nikon-rechargeable-lithium-ion-battery-for-nikon-d7000-digital-cameras/2053563.p?id=1218307911367&skuId=2053563&cmp=RMX&ky=2coA17Z3Ovs5z1YS8KYGSZ2yy3y1mTP8h"]Access Denied[/URL] $69 at Bestbuy.COM [I] (I tried to link to the Bestbuy.COM price for an EN-EL15 - I could see it but I can't buy it and apparently I can't even copy the link). [/I] it makes sense that on .08 extra per dollar that becomes [URL="http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product/nikon-nikon-rechargeable-battery-for-d7000-d7100-d800-and-v1-en-el15-en-el15/10163582.aspx?path=dbaed21859bbc33746ed8f5574cedfe6en02"]Nikon Rechargeable Battery for D7000, D7100, D800 and V1 (EN-EL15) : Camera Batteries - Best Buy Canada[/URL] $99 at Bestbuy.CA NOT .08 x 70 = $5.60 more in exchange - not $30 more or almost half again as much. And that's at Bestbuy - other retailers sell for more. Some retailers will not sell licensed Nikon products to Canada from the USA - and if they do Nikon Canada does not honour the warranty. It is worse when you look at vehicle prices - we pay tens of thousands more for the same vehicle. I know that friends in the UK might say we have it good, price upgrades to Britain is even worse. No it's not exchange it is something else - I'm thinking greed but what do I know. [/QUOTE]
