The Canadian Dollar - 2007/10/24 11:14 I just wanted to kick start a discussion about the glaring disparity between Canadian prices for coffee stuff and U.S. prices.

The Canadian deals should be better -- but they are not.

Some examples:

Bodum 3 - 8 - 12 cup SS Coffee Press; 39, 49 and 59$
from WholeLatteLove.Com

From Greenbeanery.ca in Toronto: for the same thing --
63, 77 and 84$ ...shocking!

Bodum Antigua grinder: 69$ at WholeLatteLove.com
90$ at Greenbeanery

Rocky Grinder - $320 at WholeLatteLove.Com, 410$ at Greenbeanery

Rancilio Silvia - $773 at Greenbeanery, $595 at WholeLatteLove.Com

I could go on and on and on. I hope you do.
Look around. Start complaining!

Almost all of these machines are imported into North America from Italy - there is NO reason for them to be 30% more expensive in Canada.
