WOW!!! Notice the price difference between Canada and the US for most synths, with Can and US dollars roughly at par, we Canadians are FORCED to pay MUCH MORE, ie. we are DEFRAUDED big time! We pay SOOO much more.
When's it going to stop?
JG Same thing in UK vs US. BUT there are generally much better warranties in EU countries, and overall consumer protection is more favorable. Maybe it's similar in Canada? But, to answer your question, it will probably never stop - get used to it.  Apologies for taking up space in this very useful thread.

Sound good, weighted action good. Most important: lightweight (alum,<25lbs). Will seem trivial to some but I'm esp pleased that no heavy power adapter is needed. Only thing lacking, making the Numa unsuitable IMO for serious classical playing: wide dynamic range.

Price included bench, 2 piano lessons and 2 nice piano books, which helps me feel a little better about the price. It seems it wasn't as good a deal as I thought from doing more research. But still excited to get it tomorrow!
