Price Difference Question - NewEgg.ca & NewEgg.com

    Price Difference Question - NewEgg.ca & NewEgg.com

    Hi, I was just looking at the ASUS N51 Series N51Vn-X1A at newegg.ca and noticed it is priced way more than the same model listed on newegg.com version of the site, even after considering currency exchange rates

    The .com site lists it at $950 USD, which google exchange rate calculator says is $978 CAD

    The .ca lists the same exact same model at $1,150 or a difference of +$172 CAD after currency exchange rates for the same model

     I know it sometimes takes time to adjust for currency fluctuations, but the CAD has been around this level for the last week or so i'm guessing it just hasn't updated?

    Here are the links:

    Hi JimGoo,

    I investigated this discrepancy, and it appears that this notebook is on a Newegg.com-only special right now. Unfortunately, the discount does not apply to Newegg.ca, so the price that you see is accurate at this time.

    Our new warehouse in Ontario is still gearing up to full capacity, so you should see some great deals from Newegg.ca in the near future.

    Best Regards,
    Paul


    Be excellent to each other.

    Makes sense, thanks for the reply.

     And Ontario warehouse!? Any chance its near Toronto, and if so, any chance pick ups will be allowed?

     thanks again

    JimGoo:

    Does Newegg.ca have a walk-in store or will call facility where I can physically pick-up my merchandise?

    We do not have a store or a Will-Call facility. All orders are placed online and shipped via UPS or other carriers. We do not service customers in person.

    customers can only schedule a pick-up with couriers when packages got stuck in their facilities for certain unexpected cases and customers cant wait to get them...but newegg's warehouses definitely dont allow pickup's...no wayAngry
