Lance, you should also do an amazon.com link for those people in the US.

I just noticed that, strange? Must be the Canadian spelling

Looks like they corrected the spelling. Both sites indicate audio CDs with no mention of the DVDs. Could these prices be just for teh CD portion? Not that I wouldn't pay either one.
The US site says it won't be available till November 8. I may have to road trip through that tunnel I heard about.

this may be a dumb question, but why is the set so much more expensive on amazon.com? if i order it from the canadien site, will i get plugged with extra charges?

Originally posted on UMusic.ca & reposted on Hipfans.com
HIPEPONYMOUS also includes “That Night in Toronto, a Film by Pierre & Franois Lamoureux”, an exclusive bonus DVD that features all 23 of THE TRAGICALLY HIP’S music videos, a 50-minute film directed by Christopher Mills entitled “Macroscopic”, and 11 visual vignettes set to new original scores from The Tragically Hip. The limited edition package will also include a 48-page bound book.
I haven't seen anything more about the Macroscopic film other than this description...

hopefully no-one paid the amazon.com price, and if so, hopefully you can cancel it to order from here!

When you pre-order something from amazon you can always cancel it.

or you could order it from amazon.ca and consider the extra $10 a donation to the hipbase.

No problem. I used to work with these guys. They're based out of Ottawa and they're pretty quick at getting your order in the mail. Also, I'm not sure if they still do this, but you get free bubblegum inside your package.
