Re: Ordering while in Canada



All very laudable attempts to circumvent this countries high prices, but
perhaps efforts should be directed toward lowering prices in this country?

Perhaps an open letter on behalf of the group to the
suppliers/manufacturers
of the high priced equipment, explaining why we wont be buying their
equipment?

Join this with other groups sending similar letters and manufacturers might
start to see that just because we live in the UK and have a good economy,
we
aren't all loaded with cash.
