It sure is a different price for Scanners here in Canada, as I was looking to by a Polaroid scanner the other day and it was $2300 with out taxes which would add another 15% more. I guess maybe I have to do a trip across the border if the prices are as low as I'm reading n the LUG. The problem with that right now is, one Canadian dollar is very close to being worth .50 cents US! And this is a big time "ouch" for Canadians going your way to the USA. However there is a good side and that is the cheques I receive for assignments or sales of my book in the US are in US dollars. So that means everytime I receive a US funds payment, it is very close to 50% more in value in Canadian dollars.:) Now if I could only get a very good scanner for less than $2300. I'd only be too happy to buy. Any suggestions? ted
