I'm really surprised, the U.S. site used to always have cheaper books than amazon.ca. Has anyone else found this, or is it just a fluke that the books I wanted are cheaper for Canadians? They aren't books written by Canadian authors, or published by Canadian publishing houses.
Are both prices in USD? That could account for some of the difference is the Canadian price is in Canadian dollars. The last I checked the exchange rate is nowhere near 2:1, but it could account for some of it.
