[QUOTE="pickup, post: 943557"] That's , true, the value added tax(V.A.T.) makes the retail price in Canada higher than that of comparable goods in the U.S.A. . The Canadians near the border can come over, buy stuff at lower prices. When coming back, they are allowed to bring in a certain amount of declared goods without paying the customs fees(that would include the V.A.T. , I imagine). Then there is the stuff that goes over the threshold limit that can be hidden in plain sight such as wearing the nikes you just purchased over the border. [/QUOTE]
