Hi,

I am a tennis enthusiast. i'm 14, 3.5 player and play for my high school team. in due time (3-4weeks) i am going to be buying some new tennis stuff. problem is I live in vancouver and prices are a little high. it would be quite expensive to "re-stock" my tennis stuff.
I was wondering if i went down to the US during the summer if i could find some good deals or would prices we generally cheaper then they are in canada.

heres what im looking for:

ball hopper ($75-$100 in Vancouver)
babolat pure drive racket ($200 in Vancouver)
tennis shoes ($100-$130 in Vancouver)

factor in that the canadian dollar is around 90 cents american
lower tax in the US

if you have experience with the prices and know them please let me know if it is worth it to go to the states to buy some gear.

thanks
