Chapters (www.chapters.ca) is the only online Canadian bookstore I 
know; they offer a confusing array of editions; the cheapest Canadian 
(Raincoast Books) paperback PS is $7.96 CDN; CoS is $8.76; there's no 
paperback PoA but the Raincoast hardcover is listed at $13.96; and 
GoF is $24.50.

 Their shipping to the U.S. (here I'm assuming Canadian dollars but 
their site's not specific) runs;
-$5/order +$1/item surface mail (14 business days average; this means 
I'd probably get mine in Vermont a week before you would in Texas)
-$15/order+ $5/item airmail (2-3 days).

I'll repost again with totals once I get the exchange rate, but it's 
about CDN$1= US$0.70-.75
