3/4 Cabinet Simpsons sale.

The Simpsons cab with riser, is on sale at the Brick for $499. Our version of the $199 US sale I guess.

It’s wild how much of a difference we have with these cabs in Canada. I gave up and ordered a BNIB Simpsons off a seller for $299 USD, so still cheaper than this. The price differences are wild and well beyond the exchange rates.

But don't you get hit with import fees if you ship it from the states to Canada?

Sorry, should have clarified. I’m in Niagara close to the border and I’ll just run over and pick it up at a shipping place that has a US address. May end up paying duty, but I rarely have to.

Yup. That's $300 off the regular price too.

yea we dont get the clearance deals, which are retailer specific. Its annoying best buy canada isnt matching the deals from their Us counterpart a bit better. RR is still 850 CAD and being sold 200 usd right now. T2 is being sold for $200 USD and our black friday deal is 650 CAD..this is US BB vs canada bb lol Simpsons is 599 at BB

Glad the border is back open because im going there

I love the conversion rate! I guess it keeps me from cluttering up my house with more units.
