The black ones can be purchased in Canada at Best Buy for C$0.98 (vs. US$14.89!).

Also at SonyStyle Canada now for C$399.

Well, Canada Post came by with a delivery at 11:20am today...when I happened to be out for a couple of hours. Zut! So now I have to wait until after 1:00pm tomorrow when it is supposed to be available for pickup at the local post office.

Well, I finally received an email response from MDC and also a Canada Post shipping notice email today. It's supposed to arrive by Thursday. I agree with your assessment Vesuvio -- I was also satisfied with my previous orders from MDC, so I was a little surprised at the long wait for a response.

I placed an order with MiniDisc Canada last Tuesday for an RH1 and some discs, all of which their site says ship the next business day. I received an "order processed" confirmation email the same day. After Thursday passed and I didn't receive a shipping notification, I emailed them asking for the status of my order. I can see that the order is in their system (status="processed") by logging on to my account on their webpage, so the order transaction hasn't been "lost". Since they hadn't responded to my email, I called them and left a message on their voicemail system yesterday. I'm still waiting for any type of response...I guess I'll be contacting my credit card company and looking elsewhere if I don't hear anything by tomorrow. Anyone else with a similar experience with MiniDisc Canada?

Just FYI, MiniDisc Canada's site now claims that their stock is due to arrive tomorrow.

MiniDisc Canada has lowered their price to CDN$199 (~US$172).
