I'm very happy with the RPi 3 that I bought recently from https://thepihut.com/ (taking advantage of the post-Brexit drop in the pound ;-) ) I use it as a cord-cutting media centre. Handles Plex Media Server, samba, sab and torrent agents without breaking a sweat. Sometimes Plex's transcoding can bog it down but otherwise quite nice. On 4 August 2016 at 18:57, D.

Newegg.ca has two or three "Shell Shocker(TM)" deals each day. Sometimes they are pretty good.
Today, one is a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B for $42.90 + shipping and tax.
Ground shipping is $7.99 but you can probably use "InPost" shipping which should be free. InPost will ship it to a locker of your choosing. For me, the locker is very convenient (in a Loblaws site a short walk from home).
Canada Robotix (a store in Markham) sells the RPi3 for $53.99. Creatron on College sells it for $53.50.
