Vancouver's an expensive place, and Canadians get ripped off on a lot of shit (Oakley, for one, although I don't know many places selling Oakley outerwear in Van anyway). As the guy above me said, look for at least $1200... you could always buy used stuff from Vancouver locals

more than decent. With the exchange rate, doing a trip to the US might be worth it. Also, buy your stuff on sale, it will end up being a lot cheaper. Used stuff is good too.

For sure. You should head across the border and hit up Evo, really legit.
