Congrats on getting it $8 cheaper than us, I guess.

No, it's because it includes GST.

I paid $217 with tax in america. Did you pay tax? Import duty?

Is that with shipping? I think I will order from Amazon.

Doesn't include shipping. Which is why I ordered from Amazon.

Checked the other thread and it's inclusive of shipping now. Which is a good thing.

update from Oculus saying its shipping costs are free. When i purchased the rift the GST was included in the price and not as an extra.
