Agree. I usually choose to purchase in UK£ instead of US$ from Matches and that gives me the best deal due to the exchange rate. I'm also in Canada. But if you're in the US, I assume you'd want to purchase in US$ which may not make much of a difference.
So far the best price I've seen for the mini was on matchesfashion.com it was about $100 cheaper- duties and taxes all in. I am in Canada, not sure how it will vary depending on the conversion to your currency
So if I could get one for $680 I should jump at it? I'm on my way to the store to try it on now.
