Price difference betweetn US and Canada

[Ballox]

We have a limited selection of pistols up here so it's definately worth the paperwork and $100-$200 in fees and wait time to get what you really want.

Usually Several extra layers of middle men in Canadian Gun sales, they all take a cut.
Higher Transportation costs, higher taxes, way lower volume , US manufacturers screw Canadians, and other export places so that they can sell cheap to at home.

This applies to everything else too, electronics, appliances etc...

You guys think we get it bad on guns!?! man you should see how cheap cars are in America... makes you want to cry, there's a good 30-40% difference in car prices.. you see American commercials how you can lease a new car for $199 or $229 with 0% down
good luck finding that here!

Don't even get me started on used cars,
United States:
Used 2008 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E350
$28,888

Canada:
Mercedes-Benz 350 2009
2009 EX: WHITLE IN: BLACKVERY NICE CAR WITH GREAT CONDITION INSIDE AND LITTLE BIG SCRATCH BESIDE THE FRON...
$60,000

Now that I have it straight, and I don't think I will be shopping in the States, does anyone know where I can get the afrorementioned CZ 75 Kadet for a reasonable price, in Canada.

seriously, the number of these kits sold in canada would equal 100's..... in the USA they would 10,000's

the volume is so small the dealer does not get a price break for volume and frankly most importers into canada are paying so close to USA retail prices for thier guns it is not funny..... so of course there is going to be a markup, there is a paperwork fee and importation/brokerage fee on every gun imported (not just on the shipment).

if you want a cadet kit keep your eye on the EE for a used one, if not suck it up and pay the price...

I don't want a kit I want the pistol.

I will keep an eye on the EE. I will not pay over a thousand, including tax, for a new one. They just aren't worth that kind of money.
