 Posted: Mon Mar 24, 2008 4:49 pm Post subject: Lacoste polos |
 |
|
How much are each of the Lacoste polos sold for in Canada? I'm planning to go to either Edmonton or Calgary in the summer to buy a few shirts.
When I checked the online store (only for USA), the polos I wanted were listed for $75.00 USD each, and I'm sure the same goes for stores in the United States. But what about Canada? I remember coming across a page in Fashion Magazine where the polos were listed for $100.00 CAD each in Canada! I hope that's not true because I don't plan on going to the United States any time soon. |

^Yeah, we're getting burned.
The exchange rate is almost 1:1 but we're still paying way more.
Canada's import duties only go so far in determing the price, the rest is greedy mark up by the retailers.

| ^ Yeah, it blows. I bought one for my ex-boyfriend two years back and with tax and everything it came up to about 115 dollars (I'm in BC by the way, if you're wondering about PST and whatnot) |

I guess I will wait until I go to the United States then.  There is no point in spending that much money on the shirts when I could get it cheaper elsewhere.  |

Wow really? I dunno I got it a couple of years ago when PST was higher. But I distinctly remember it being $115 something. |
