Now if there's already a thread like this, I apologize for being a dumb ass and not finding it.

Anyways, I have some questions about the prices of Marvel Universe figures. A. Down in the U.S how much do the Gigantic Battles figures cost? B. Down in the U.S how much do the Masterworks figures cost? C. How much do the Comic Packs cost?

Up here in the great white north, Marvel Universe figures cost about $9.96 ($11.11 if you include my Provinces, B.C's, taxes.) and in the U.S cost about $7.99 (I'm assuming more with U.S taxes?).

Now I was wondering this because Marvel Universe is a VERY hard thing to find up here, the new stuff anyways. Meaning, Gigantic Battles and Masterworks don't even exist up here unless you're in a comic book shop. And they charge $100 for Galactus, and most likely the same for the Sentinel. So I do most of my purchases off Ebay. And of course on Ebay the figures go for more than retail (U.S retail usually). So basically I'm trying to find out the difference between prices, just to see if Ebay is even worth it.

And there's the part of me that's just curious to find out the price difference. If you were wondering why they're more expensive in Canada, it's because of our bilingual law. All packaging has to be in English and French (Usually Spanish too) thus making the packaging more expensive to make. It's pretty stupid.

Also, if there's already a thread like this, just direct me to it and I'll probably just post this again there.
