I am seriously thinking of pulling out as just because of the exchange rate change over the past month, the cost of this unit has jumped for us from $545 CAD to $604 CAD.
I don't know if I can stomach and additional 13% price hike in the cost of this unit from when I made the pledge to what I will be paying now. And it looks like the CAD is slipping even further down into the black hole. By the time they bill me, I fear I will be paying closer to $700 CAD for something that I thought was costing me far less.
Can't blame Axiom as it's the way KickStarter works. But then again, they can't blame us Canadian customers if we pull out as the cost now is no where near the cost then.
Yeah things aren't cheap in Canada are they. I have a hard time swallowing $600 bucks for this thing when I already have portable speakers in the house...granted they probably aren't anywhere near as good but that is only something I can assume as this point. I fear when this thing hits the 700-800 CDN price point it'll be product suicide. I'm sure it is a difficult task to try to price something accordingly.
