There's also $10 overnight Fedex available, apparently.

Is this a good deal?

that would be insane for me, H10's cost 300CDN up here.

It was on special for $159 for woot.com members two or three days ago from ecost as well. You had to follow a link though, and it's dead

Still a good deal though.

Wow...well I always wondered about the profit margins on H10s - they always seemed a tad overpriced in my mind.

Just don't order a black remote for your zen micro. I did, twice. Guess what colour I didn't get.

(even a colourblind person can tell black from white...morons)

I'm sure they charge you tax on top of that, which is 15% in Ontario.

EDIT: I just checked how much it would cost shipped to me (Sudbury, Ontario) and the total including shipping, handling, duty and taxes was $271.80 CAD, so that's a pretty significant increase in price compared to $169 US if you ask me.
