Re: Newly diagnosed-- what to expect?

CPAP.COM QUESTION

Just wondering if other Canadians have ordered off this site and have noticed difference in prices for equipment btw Canada and USA (even with exchange are you still saving money?) Any issues with getting it shipped to Canada and across the border?
Thanks.
