Best place to buy a D-BG2 in Canada?

Hi I'm looking to get the D-BG2 grip for a K10D, and was wondering where the best place to purchase it would be? I looked at some on ebay and they seem to be going for about $140-230. Most of the ones for $230 are over here in Canada. Would buying over in the US + the $30ish dollars for shipping be worth it? Or do any Canadian members have a better place to purchse one?

Thanks.

Have you tried your local Pentax dealer, just to see what they're charging? My local store carries the BG2 for $200, or in a package for $300 that includes a spare D-LI50 for the K10 and a remote F, which is about $100 more than the same items cost seperately in the US. If you are buying in Canada, $230 with tax at a retail store means you don't have to worry about shipping or payment on ebay Canada for roughly the same price.

I haven't seen better pricing than that in Canada from Henry's or Vistek, but maybe someone is aware of another dealer with better pricing (or you could take a vacation down to Seattle and pick one up there...).
