if the book is available on amazon.ca (canada) order it from there, as their dollar is closer to ours than the US$
no idea about the conversion fees though, it's usually a percentage of the amount you are convertine. I think it's somewhere between 3 and 5%, but this is just guessing from the charges my Dad got while we were in Hong Kong.
Yes but stuff here in Canada usually costs more than in the states, accounting for the currency difference... and we're getting screwed right now becuase the up in prices still stand even though the Canadian dollar is getting really close to the US dollar right now (it's at like 91% I think).
Amazo.ca usually has higher prices than Amazon.com
