Strange isn't it?
I wonder what weird preferential pricing winds up with American parts being 
cheaper after they are shipped halfway around the world than they are at home??

I know they do that with new car prices - which is why we can buy a new 
American car in Canada for less than you can down there (and we have to promise 
not 
to sell it back to you!) I hadn't realised they did it with parts, though.
