Trouble with Black and White II

[Hill-Shatar]

Hey, Kersh, I feel your pain. I went and did a little checking for the current exchange rate and came up with this result. I'm not sure if the site is American... truthfully, I don't buy much over the internet.

The second site is a rip. Our dollar might be worth less than the American's, but not that much. If your willing to part with $62.22 Canadian, I would go for the first. However, that exchange rate is variable... for all I know, it could be $68.

I'll check around... some of the larger sites handle different types of currency from different countries. I'd go out and check some of the stores around you and see how much this model costs off the shelf. Í know Compusmart at one point sold them, but was recently bought out. EB, Future Shop or Staples should all have cards as well.

If I may ask, is this your money your spending?

Edit- That second site might be out of date... either way, I went to Amazon and found this list here. Some are used on the lists of sellers, but most are new. Exchange rates apply, and some areas they can't ship to. There will be an error message on the screen if they can't ship to your area.

I'd speak to your parents on this one, as they have more knowledge then you, and most likely me as well, about buying items.

Well when it come to buying items they probably know more, but when it comes to computers, I know way too much compared to them, so I wouldn't trust them into choosing what works best for my computer but I will still have to look into prices and online, business, etc;. And as for what I am mainly looking in to, is for something maybe around here, I'll drop by Staples or FutureShop later though. Do you live in Canada? Or America? If Canada where so, just curious as to things in Canada can have a huge impact on prices when it comes to Northern Provinces, such as something in Nunavut can be much, much more than something in Ontario.

I used to be from London, Ontario, in the southern region of that province, and I now reside in the more Northern city of Calgary, Alberta. Prices here are higher for everything, but that is probably due to the amount of money coming through this city lately. Most people come only to make some money before they go off to retire in British Columbia or head off to a more comfortable job.

Card prices and the like have not changed that much in price, though. Both places had the same high end graphics card for the same price. In the end though, if you live in the middle of the northern expanse, than your going to have some higher prices... transportation to that area isn't easy.

I'm not sure how much of a shipping fee would be involved, but if you live that far north, than it's likely slightly more expensive than I would have to spend.

Oh, I live in Guelph, Ontario, west of Toronto, about an hour away. And ya, shipping goods farther north costs more thats why I made that statement. Currently my mother is in B.C. visiting a friend, who has like 3 million dollars So, makes me wonder, lol. Anyway ya, I am going to have to look into this a bit more as I said before. Thanks for your help though.

Thanks for your help though.

Your welcome. DJV actually told me what was here, so he deserves a little credit.

I'll continue to check around for you, but I honestly don't know much about internet buying sites. Good luck with this.
