"kwaying your eyes out over being only the second cheapest country in the world when it comes to hardware prices" Incorrect: they do not even figure in the top 10 cheapest countries. Do some research, I did and it took less than 5 minutes to prove you wrong.

"Incorrect: they do not even figure in the top 10 cheapest countries" You mean there are LESS then 180 countries that are more expensive then Canada? THAT IS OUTRAGEOUS 😀 😀

I will give an example of the price gouging we have to deal with in Canada. Most Americans are clueless of this. Here we have the Asus ROG Strix X370-F Gaming motherboard in the USA. The board is 174.99 after a 15 dollar mail in rebate on Amazon USA. The same board is 264.69 at Amazon Canada, and no rebate offered. This type of garbage is what we have to deal with when buying any computer hardware. We get completely ripped off. https://www.amazon.com/ROG-Strix-X370-F-GAMING-DisplayPort/dp/B071ZHCF41/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8 https://www.amazon.ca/ROG-Strix-X370-F-GAMING-DisplayPort/dp/B071ZHCF41/ref=sr_1_1_mimg_1_pc_display_on_website?ie=UTF8&qid=1509398839&sr=8-1&keywords=asus+strix+x370 174.99 US is actually 224.52. We are paying 264.69, which is a 40.17 price gouge. This is what we have to deal with constantly.
That example does not help your case. You are comparing amazon to a 3rd party seller. 3rd party sellers jack up the price no matter where you go. Compared newegg prices. https://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813132989&cm_re=asus_x370-f-_-13-132-989-_-Product Newegg is 189 USD. Converted is 244 Cad. Newegg.ca is cheaper by 20 cad at 224, normal price is the same as the US newegg. Again, when you take comparable products, prices end up being the same.

No, you are incorrect. You don't live here. People who make purchases on PC hardware in this country are well aware that in most cases, we pay more. Up until August, we were paying between 493 and 509 Canadian on Amazon.ca and Newegg.ca for an R7 1700X. I know this, as I bought one, and I tried to force them to price match to the exact conversion amount. They refused, and then I talked to management. In the end, they gave me a price of 399.99 Canadian.
I'm not incorrect as I just refuted with evidence on all of your examples. X370 board, the 1080ti and the GTX 1070. All 3 of those are the same prices vs US. Your issues are entirely different where 3rd party sellers jack up prices based on limited quantity supplied. Basic economics. You claimed that all the prices are higher but the examples you provided all turned out to be the same prices as USA.

U have something like 21% vat added to the price that's already included our taxes in Canada at least are not included. As for everyone arguing over Canadian prices we may not have the most expensive but it is still bs that we are gouged even by a little bit. And it's indisputable that Americans have the cheapest prices. Let's all agree that all prices are a ripoff especially since I'm cheap:p

I quess some companies dont know what they are selling or are just greedy https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/EVGA-GeForce-GTX-1070-FTW-GAMING-ACX-3-0-8-GB-GDDR5-VR-Ready-Graphics-Card/253003974243?_trkparms=aid=888007&algo=DISC.MBE&ao=1&asc=49129&meid=bd7644c7791848858e3969f3ed704347&pid=100009&rk=1&rkt=2&sd=112529034682&_trksid=p2047675.c100009.m1982 But im more inclined to say this seller is just stuppid...reason being he`s trying to flog it as a black edition when it is the same as mine or he has no clue what he is doing.

I have been watching the prices of these cards on amazon over the last few weeks and i have watched quite a few of them increase by almost £100, now call me Susan and slap me with a wet haddock if i don't smell a price rise before we see them drop down again for black Friday as deals. lol
