Do my eyes deceive me?
I went to Holt Renfrew in Vancouver to look at a Neverfull PM and a Batignolles Horizontal. At eluxury it was $600usd and $775usd respectively. At Holts it was $575cdn and $735cdn.
Can someone please enlighten me? Thanks.

I have a friend who works art Holts Bloor and I had her price things for me. Yes, it's indeed cheaper. (Like pre US 5% increase -cheaper.) A Speedy 30 is $625, a mono pochette is $280 or $285. There's a thread about Canadian pricing in the shopping section, though. You should take a look.

13% tax in ontario, which adds up when your spending that much on a bag

there might be some sort of tax-free for tourists thing tho, i'm not sure since i'm not a tourist lol

Only PST is refunded now, and it must be for items with a retail value of 625$ or over. Here's some more info - http://www.2ontario.com/traveltips/tips22.asp

Taxes may be high.. but there's delicious universal healthcare in return ! :lol:
