Why is the price of the Beckett at $14.99 cdn and $9.99 us
The Canadian currency is at 0.990032 to the Us currency and yet the price of the magazine is at 14.99 that would equal a conversion of
0.6664442?
Guess Beckett doesn't want to answer this one do they?

Because this is the most expensive country to live in for services and most products.

Because they haven't adjusted the price since the two currencies reached par, they might try to say it costs that much to ship it north. You be the judge.

9 out of every 10 becketts they sell are to Canadians. Canadians spend 3x the amount on sports cards then any other country. i would guess 99% of it being hockey as other sports just dont survive in canada.
