Look at the price for this lens, on sale for $189.00.

I will get one for that price.

That is a nice price for Canadians, but it costs $21 to ship it to the US in 5-6 days. You can pay less overall in the US by buying it at one of the NY camera shops.

It is a deal for us.
With our dollar finally riding close to par with the US greenback, prices have started to decrease. By buying locally I cover myself in the event of a problem. If prices continue to go down, I'll buy local otherwise ordering from the US is much cheaper specially when our dollar hit $1.10 usd as seen last month.
