Welcome, to life inside the electric circus. I'm a fellow Canuck (naturalized) currently residing in the US until OHIP can unf**k itself then will be back in Canada. Also want to get all my recording gear here since it's 10 times the price in Canada, and a whole lot harder to get your hands on.

I just checked a few items on Amazon.ca. How do they work out their prices? Pan's Labyrinth on Blu-ray, 9.99, very good. The Water Horse on BD, 45 bucks, are they serious? It's 8.50 here from Amazon. Anyhoo with a few exception, and GAS, I'm getting close to being set to go. I'm thinking Mississauga in a year or two.

Pricing for music stuff is getting better in Canada though...I dont find the prices to be that much more than american sites however we do have less of a selection to choose from though it seems.

Couple of sites I use.

i love long-mcquade

i love long-mcquade

long & mcquade have great customer service.

last time I bought from them I wanted to buy a microphone stand...the stand was out of stock however they sold me a rental stand they had in the back that was 3 times the quality of the one I wanted out of stock for the same price...the stand was a rental and used however it works perfectly and is much better than what I wanted.

Now thats how you treat a customer...I pretty much buy from them now because of little things like that.

My brother took a power amp in to get fixed...the guy at Long & Mcquade basically said the problem was a loose fuse...they fixed it and didnt charge us for it.

They get most of my business now...bought drums skins,mics,preamps,guitar strings ect.

It pays to treat the buyer well because they will come back...some stores/websites dont understand that concept.

Welcome, Fury.

I thought about moving to Canada once.

Once.

Amazingly enough, the local Guitar Center here is really good to customers. GC has a bad rep, but here they're great. Buy a guit/bass that doesn't come with a bag or case and they'll sell you one for half price. It may be an off brand, but they're damned good, the case I got for my SUB is an SKB.

Welcome, Fury.

I thought about moving to Canada once.

Once.

I spent the 60s in Birmingham, where I was born {the real Birmingham where almost everyone's accent sounds a slit wrist away from suicide at worst and depression at best, the one in the UK that produced Lenny Henry, Black Sabbath, the Moody Blues, Benjamin Zephaniah, Steel Pulse, The Move, ELO, Judas Priest and Spaghetti junction} but around '68, '69, friends and relatives told my Dad that Canada was crying out for people with his skills {he was a civil engineer} and besides, William Shatner had left. So there plans to move to Canada. At the same time, a job came up in London that provided a flat in what was then the slums of Islington. The choice was simple, the beauty of the worlds 2nd largest land mass with it's bears and opportunities or the racially incendiary slums of late 60s Islington......

To this day I've never been to Canada !
