Apologies if this has been discussed (didn't appear in a search) but any reason as to why SSENSE has certain items on sale on its US geo-located site and from the Canadian side of the site the same items aren't on sale whatsoever? And then on top of that there are things that are 45% off on the US side of the site but only 25% off on the Canadian side. :/ Super weird.

weak CAD relative to USD seems like the only reasonable explanation

I definitely get that, just doesn't make sense that there are items sitting full price on the Canadian site and the same items are discounted (up to 60% in one case) on the US side. A sweater for 250 USD (about 350 Canadian) but 650 CAD on the Canadian side doesn't account for exchange disparity.

Mr P and the Corner both have the same setup - ie one store for US and one store for ex-US, with different stock volume, pricing and sale timings between the two. Likely due to combination of different distributor arrangements, stock locations, shipping and tax issues factors, rather than exchange rates?
