Best place to get a digital camera in Canada?

[BigToquex]

From the sounds of it, people here seem to like to Canon A70. I'm just wondering where I can get one in Canada for the best price.

I'm not really planning on buying right now, just kinda looking around. Maybe a sale will come up or something.

Have someone in the US buy it for cheap from Dell or OfficeMax and ship it to you.

RedFlagDeals.com, a Canadians-only hot deals website, has at least 3 decent digicam offers listed this week. Myself, N8Magic and many other AT Canadians frequently visit and post in their forums as well.

...but yes, nothing beats a friend down south who's willing to cut you in on a Yankee deal or two.

I have had bad experiences with things comming from the US.

First time, I had to pay an extra $60 for some reason I dont even remember (probably customs), just to bring in my CD burner that I bought used off of someone.

The second time, I had to pay $40 for customs to bring in an f'cking RMA'd video card.

Maybe I'm just having really bad luck, but I'm really leary about buying anything from down there. I don't feel like getting screwed again.

A certain AT member has in the past shipped me an NewEgg item marked "DEFECTIVE" which slipped it right under the duties radar.

First one was UPS.

The second one (the video card) was shipped USPS.
