In Canada, Xbox Elites retail for $549.99, with sales tax (will vary by province) in Ontario total is $632.49.

With current exchange rate, that's $600.69US.

At 40,000fpp, $600.89US is $.015/fpp.

That's equivalent to the Supernova Bonus.

For any Canadians less than Supernova it's a pretty good deal since the Platinum bonus is $.013/fpp and the Gold bonus is $.011/fpp.

However, for Americans, Newegg has them for $479.99+$12.52 shipping which is obv a much better deal. This is the equivalent to $.012/fpp.

thanks for the math.

how is the wii priced for Canada residents at 24,000 points? i am not sure what it retails for here.

as a side note, the xbox is very similiar deal for canadians as they $1000 future shop gc for 60,000 points. That works out to like .0158/fpp

Wii is $289.99 at www.futureshop.ca. With tax (Ontario) that would total $288.84. Which is $274.40US.

I don't see it in the Stars store, but assuming 24,000 fpp that's $0.011/fpp. You'd be better off taking any bonus above Gold and buying it cash. Alternately the $1000 gift card is always a good deal at $.0158/fpp.

You'd think the PS3 would have been the first of the 3 in the FPP store since they are stocked friggin everywhere since no one is buying [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

as a nova $1500 for 100,000 fpps.
so FPP = $.015 x 40,000 = $ 600.
amazons got 'em for $480 free shipping.
ouch.

EDIT: sorry for repeating everyone about the price - thread was tl;dr.
