Fluctuating CAD dollar. - Final price? Almost 100$ more!

Hey guys. So, I'm glad to see some life from oculus and that international shipping is being dropped on my preorder. That's fantastic. I wasn't in the first batch anyway but waiting longer is generally okay if the price is significantly reduced. Anyway - am I going to be charged $849.00+tax as it says on the site, or am I going to be charged $779.48+tax as is the current going exchange rate? 

I would actually prefer to be charged in USD if the $849cad price is set in stone and take my chances - What do?

I'm considering cancelling due to this, we're up AGAIN, and I can't justify spending 200$ more then it's worth for no reason at all 😞

I think $849.00 (CAD) +tax price is set in stone. At least this is how it works for € (699€ regardless of any exchange rate fluctuations).

BTW just bought something off eBay a few Min's ago in China billed in usd and PayPal exchange was 0.74 to 1, instead of the 0.77... So like I said before paying in USD won't change the final price much

I saw 599 US when I ordered it and just assumed the 849Can was calculated on the fly. So I was surprized to see it still at $849 Can.  At least we'll save on shipping , I hope.

MAXPARE70 Paypal always have an exorbitant in their favor exchange rate.
