to answer your question Apocalypz, yea apparently JB and Nike will be adjusting their prices beggining spring of '08 in Canada...but if you ask me I think it's gonna suck balls cuz theyre probably gonna jack up prices even more which I think is a stupid thing...think about it for a second why would they drop prices?!?! They're (Nike and JB) are just gonna say that it costs more to ship to Canada etc etc with with the rising loonie not to mention within the coming weeks the loonie is expected to exceed the American dollar...so lets use the XXI's as an example...i know kinda random but they're sitting on my desk right now for I dont know what reason but...American retail is 169.99 + tax, lets face it tax in the states isn't as lucrative as it is up here...so lets say i dont know 6%...fair? okay so 169.99 times 1.06 should equal $180.1894...after conversion which was somewhere around 1.13-14 at the time so lets give them the benifit of the doubt and just say 1.15...that would equal $207.22 Canadian Dollars....
NOW if we look at CANADIAN RETAIL for the XXI's it was $269.99 + tax which equals $307.79 with a difference of $100.57...still following? NOW I KNOW WHAT SOME OF YOU MAY BE SAYING....what about shipping?!?! and blah blah blah...you mean to tell me that if Buffalo can get them and Toronto, which is like a 3-4 hour drive mind you...then how the hell are prices gonna be jacked up that high? it can't be because of gas its not THAT much to raise prices that much thats just stupid...NOW if the canadian dollar toples the american then what? Oh because you guys have a better dollar we're going to respect you and lower prices??? forget crack...pretty soon we're gonna have to suck di(ks to get Jordans lol thats just what I think anyways...anyone else have any other input on this situation?
Oh to the creator of the thread and to all canadians using niketalk or iss or w/e...why don't we all just make threads in the main JB or Nike forums all with the same names just to get our point across...what the hell are they going to do ban all of us? they can't silence us like this thats absolute bull **** I mean I for one dont want to have to suck a di(k for a pair of shoes...maybe some crack...but not for god damn shoes lol jks jks but seriously if we all petition this crap about flippin mods trying to censor our oppinions why are we just going to stand around and not do anything? anyone in on just flooding JB forums and Nike forums...heck ALL THE DAMN FORUMs with "Nike/JB PUNCHING CANADA IN THE NUTS" or something like that?
