For once it's great others feel our pain from previous years. But we still had to pay taxes on our boots, so it's all good I guess.

Just ordered mine - turns out it's cheaper to ship to the US than Canada due to taxes by about $25. HST was something like $36 + $20 for Canadian shipping vs. $30 for American shipping.

Irbe, your size should be similar to mine. I will post it here later.
This sizin is messing me up. Either way I should be okay since I order a 7.5 E since I'm a 8.5 to 9 US in common shoes the mall. They might be a little big but guess insoles will have to be used.

Wouldn't it be ironic for someone in Vancouver to have it shipped to 'ship happens' just so you can avoid paying HST. I think it would be cheaper.

Definitely wouldn't be ironic, but you're right - you would save like $10. I'd rather have em a week early though
