    Maybe by sale, they meant more than MSRP. Although I'm not sure if sale actually means that...

    I assume you're in Canada? You guys are kinda getting screwed lately; the exchange rate is basically even with the US Dollar, yet all your prices are still 10-20% more. It's crazy.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    Probably Canadian... when I was shopping for LSi's I couldn't find a retailer within BC that would do anything less than msrp (ended up buying direct from polk for a much better price).

    Ya, I'm in Canada. It's so true, the excahnge is now no longer a real issue, but the market is still staying the way it was when we were at $0.80. :mad:

    Also because there are so few retailers here the competition is almost non-existent. almost a monopoly.

    Sheesh, you guys are lucky down there ;)

    The lower series can be caught on actual sales... but the LSi series is hard to find in Canada.

    Now's a very good time to make a quick trip to Seattle ;)

    Funny thing: I got my bryston's at dealer cost, and due to the rise of the Canadian dollar, they're actually selling on the used market for MORE than I paid.

    I just bought a pair of Rti10 (brand new in there boxes) for 525$ Can. this weekend at Future Shop, the salesman was in shock when he saw the price.
    Ok, the Rti's are about to be replace by the RTi 2008 Series but that was a great deal.:cool:
