    First off, I didn't see it on Alex's site so the basis for the comment was thinking you were the only one offering it. I've talked to Alex and hes explained the situation which I completely understand how hard it is for retailers in Canada. It is what it is!

    BUT like any consumer we want options. RE: Sick of having my wallet raped.

    I prefer local, but when you can't even come close to the same pricing I have a hard time justifying it.

    Are you Canadians able to order directly from Escort? Or will they refer you to the Canadian dealers?
    One of the worst things you can be in life is blindly obedient to authority. It’s a forfeiture of your personhood—an acknowledgement of your nothingness.

    Gotcha. That's a bit more reasonable.

    I dont think he is an Authorized Escort dealer. Have you ever contacted any of these dealers for Escort: https://www.escortradar.com/dealer_canada.php
