PT, don't forget about shipping costs from u.s. to canada... likely another 60-80% added to cost. Those used 12v panels are $0.79/watt plus shipping... so say $1.25/watt, minimum.
Local is the way to go... i bought 140w/12v panels locally for $145 can, so about $125 u.s.... $0.89/watt u.s..
A 250w/24v can be had for $239 can., so about $195 u.s.... $0.78/watt u.s..
exactly... u.s. exchange, plus shipping, makes those used panels way more expensive, in the long run. Even if the OP picks them up, they'll be more expensive... $0.79/watt u.s. plus about 25%, state's side, compared to $0.89/watt u.s., canadian side.
