I'll tell you this much. my first impression is that the Canadian price is insane. $699 for the bundle at Best Buy. I mean, everything is bad up here now, but seeing this is kind of a turn off. I'll be dropping I'm guessing $550 for the Pro, so PSVR is a no go for now. http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product/playstation-4-playstation-vr-launch-bundle-3001559/10417949.aspx

So, what's the reason for stuff to be so expensive in Canada? Still cheaper than Australia though as there's no bundle so that's $760 without the game.

Exchange rate sucks atm. $399 is now CAD 526. The ps4 pro is listed at CAD 499, PSVR at CAD 549. Loss on the pro, profit on the psvr.
$499 converts to CAD 658. I guess they charge 699 because they can... The camera is CAD 75 at best buy, 2 move pack CAD 130, VR worlds CAD 50. Buying all seperate would be CAD 805.
