I just did a quick Google of Hobby Shops Toronto. You have no shortage of hobby shops in Toronto. You just have to get around and do the visiting. Regarding UPS rates, I was in a hurry for a four port charger for my mcx. They were available at Horizon long before my LHS. I bought directly from Horizon. The purchase from Horizon <u>INCLUDING </u>shipping was $71.97 USD. This was UPS Ground shipping. When it arrived at my door, those BANDITS from UPS demanded yet <u>ANOTHER</u> $38.00 CDN for "duty and brokerage". UPS from the States is just bad, bad news.

When I checked some of the Toronto stores, I did not find too many prices posted. You won't find too many prices posted for Vancouver area stores either. I know that a stock CX3 RTF locally ranges from $250.00 to $280.00 CDN.
