Re: [BC] Basic TV (only one CBC station is enough) without cable quote:
Though, you may want to try going to the US and picking one up there - they may be a fair bit cheaper than $80 Canadian... $50 US I've seen them, or $60 Canadian. There's also wider selection there.
Sadly you'll get nailed on duty and shipping fees, so it wouldn't be beneficial to obtain one from the U.S.

| Duty only if you ship via crappy carriers like UPS... otherwise it's $5 via the mail. Unfortunately, a lot of people use UPS... but I'll save the UPS-gouging for another day.
Then again, if you're going to make a trip across the border, it may be well worth it. One model versus the dozen or so available across the border.
Plus, there are more models that are pricier but with nicer features (not as plentiful, since they don't qualify for the $40 rebates). Features such as component outputs, digital audio outputs, etc. But hey, it beats buying a new TV. Also, there's better antenna choices across the border, including some powerful signal pullers. |
