Just a heads up to any of you looking to cop common projects... it is significantly cheaper if you buy it from USA or Europe than it is from local shops. Most local or Canadian places are usually charging in the 580-640 +tax ballpark, but if you get them from USA (norse) or Europe (TBS), after exchange rates it usually works out to be ~$350-380 CAD +brokerage/taxes.
Got mine a couple of years ago from TBS and they were great about marking down the value on the customs form... not sure if they still do it though
