Amazon.ca finally has kitchen stuff

Looks to me as if Amazon.ca is only re-shipping rather than selling and the prices are no bargain. Am I missing something?

Probably not.

It no doubt just matches the Amazon.ca book lists. There might be a lessening on the shipping and handling and any border costs. I didn't actually check out anything. One lives in hope... :rolleyes:

Was Anna N. correct! I guess!

Today following a lead in Smitten Kitchen I looked up Ateco 11-piece Graduated Round Cookie Cutter set. Sounded like a good idea to me. Wow! Only $14 on Amazon.com (aka USA)

Looked it up on Amazon.ca (Canada): $25.75 for a savings of: wait for it! 24 cents. :sad::angry::sad:

Hmm - it gets even more scary when you realize that it does not ship from Amazon.ca but from Golda's Kitchen and the rates are not exactly cheap. I guess this also means no free shipping even if you combine it with other items on Amazon. I must say I am very disappointed in the whole idea. I don't see why I wouldn't order directly from Golda's Kitchen but perhaps I am missing something.
