Re: G.I. Joe Classified Online/Pre Order Sightings Thread
My cost for two Vipers in a TRU store was $76.82 after tax as of Aug 9th.
My Target order for a C.I. Trooper & Viper, shipped to California, was $71.77 (Canadian). This cost includes a Target shipping cost for one of the Vipers for $5 or so. (early June)
My Target order for another C.I. Trooper & Viper, shipped to California, was $71.57 (Canadian). This cost includes a Target shipping cost for one of the Troopers for $5 or so. (early August)
Slight fluctuation in exchange rate due to charges showing up a month apart.
*order limit of 1 per order so I placed 3 orders and paid the shipping for 2 figures while the other two got free shipping*
Cost of shipping back to Canada will run you about $30, mark as gift to avoid duties.
After the math is said and done, you're paying slightly over $5 more per GI Joe figure if purchased in Canada compared to in the US using a Canadian Visa card. You would need to buy a significant amount for true savings to start happening, perhaps too much before customs starts asking why your car is full to the brim with toys.
Obviously conversion rates matter so things could change.
My only issue is availability, just pump out more so its not a luck quest to buy something.
