Hi fellow canucks,i am having no luck finding any version here in Toronto.PCCanada had a couple last week but are now waiting for new stock.

Thx,dj6518
 
I'm on the prowl too, I know ncix is getting the FPS in stock but i'm waiting for the plat ver
 
Guys, I ordered mine from Creative on Sunday, it shipped on Monday, and I had it on Tuesday. When you go to check out on the site, there are two shipping options - but both had the same price (about $30 bucks) - I chose the faster option and it took less than 20 hours from being shipped to get to me in Richmond Hill.

:D
 
I placed my order with Creative yesterday afternoon and its being shipped 'FedEx Canada Priority'. I hope that's the "fast option" but as of this morning the order is still 'pending'.

Did your Canadian order have to go thru a broker at customs? I sure hope not, those guys are thieves!
 
No broker fees upon delivery - but Fedex sometimes justs mails you that bill seperately. :(

Thanks for the info. I've never been billed for broker fees after the fact, but there's a first time for everything.

Dang, my order is still "pending". I suppose its not likely to arrive this afternoon, eh? :D
 
Not likely - but then mine was pending until about 4pm last monday night and I had the card in my hands the next morning around 10am. Unfortunately I was at work, so I still had to wait until Tuesday night to test it out.
 
My shipment just arrived ... no brokerage fees, only those taxes we all know and love.
:rolleyes:

Time to play . . . . . . . . :D
 
Interesting, what kind of taxes? I didn't pay anything additional when mine was delivered.
But, the shipping was fast - right? Almost as fast as if you could find the product locally in a store and go get it (which you can't.)
 
Mine has a pending as of 2:47pm yesterday, no delivery yet, 3 more hours of the business day, still have my fingers crossed!

0110 where are you located?

I'm in downtown TO
 
I had to give the FedEx driver $42.61 Ca to cover GST and PST. Are you telling me you got it tax free? Arrrrrrrgggggggggghhhhhhhhhh. ( hehehe )

The shipping was super fast. I placed the order with Creative at 3pm Mon and the card arrived here at 11am this morning (Wed).

...So it leaves Union City, goes to a depot in Oakland, goes to Mississauga, back to Oakland out ot Memphis. The times don't make sense, I'm confused, bad luck.
 
Give FedEx International a call -- they'll let you know exactly what's going on and where the shipment is.
