Amen. And not just postage fees, but the item prices themselves. No disrespect intended to any other retailer, but exactly why should I pay $60 + shipping (sometimes excessive shipping charges) for a GBB magazine in Canada when I can order it from eHobby for $25-30 including shipping?

And that's true for a lot of other parts too. I can order a metal slide for a GBB from any Asian source for under $100 including shipping. The same part costs double that in Canada. As much as I like leaving my money here in Canada, when there's such a wide delta in price and no logical reasoning for it (other than we're being fleeced), I have to go abroad.
