    uh, actually, yes, it does.
    seriously.
    depends on the brand though, same as here.
    Heineken sucks no matter where you live.

    as for the cops, I prefer ours on foot.
    I can run pretty damn fast. [img]wink.gif[/img]


    but back to the toy thing...
    90% of the new stuff I buy is not available in local shops.

    so...

    I gotta pay cost + shipping, exchange, duty/tariff...

    a $6 US toy can run me $25-30 CAN.

    the exchange right now (at this very moment) is
    1.00 USD = 1.21600 CAD

    now, I just dropped $220+ US on ebay BEFORE shipping...

    after at shipping and duty/tariffs, I'm looking at probably $400 CAN...easily. if not more.

    don't complain. [img]wink.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/beer.gif[/img]


    free trade, my ass.

    one of the ebs around here was actually the number one selling store for action figures on the east coast and even they no longer carry them. i think its a franchise wide thing at this point

    None of the EBs in my area have really carried figures in a very long time. the gamestops are still getting new figs in, but not as often as they used to..shipments of figures when I was working there were few and far between, and they never even got in a lot of the new lines.
