Default Finally I got a Microsizer !

This has been discussed before, I know it. But they finally came to Canada !

Cost me 57.50$ CAD with tax for a blue Nissan Skyline GT-R...

I can't find any upgrade since they are already back order...

At least I can find somes on eBay...

HOLY CRAP! You paid $57.50 for one those things? They're only like 20 bux down here, but you can get them off Ebay for like 10-15 bux. That's all American, but who knows. 20 bux American probably equals $57.50 Canadian. *lol*

$20 U.S. is about $30 CAD... add it tax (where I live, WeirdGuy is nearby), and that becomes $35, then if there's shipping, another $5 to $10.
But it's not uncommon for some stuff to cost more here.

Yeah but with shipping, in the end, it may cost more than what I paid.

The price was 49.99$ plus tax. In american, it's almost 32$.

I could have get it cheaper, but where ? There was only one place where I could find them.

Anyway I'm gonna get the upgrade on eBay, since there is none available here, everything is Back Order...

Is there no shopping malls up there? At mine they are $19.99 for car and everything. New bodies are really cheap too.

Yes there is shopping malls. But don't forget we're in Canada. So everything cost more... and is harder to find... I found only one place where I could get theses things.

Stickshift, if you find another place in Ottawa, tell me.

YEah, the site says there's a place in Hull that sells them and one in Kingston.

Those things are cool. I think I'll add that to my Christmas list... *lol* I could drive my cat CRAZY with one of those.... Hee hee....
