where to buy an HPS

i'm in the market for a 400/600 HPS system... the cheapest system i can get in any hydroponic store within a 2 hour drive is ~300-400$... i've seen alot of cheap deals for HPS lighting systems on ebay and other hydroponic stores in the US though... what i'm asking is if anyone knows of any US companies that ship to canada, i might as well take advantage of the dollar being so high atm..

Classified ads like Kijiji or craigs list are awesome for it. I got two 600s of it already.

i got one for $150 shipped to me from htgsupply.com but i live in the us.
magnetic ballast, decent reflector, supposed to be an enhanced bulb but well see i guess.....

yes HTG KICKS ASS... but unfortunatly they dont ship to Canada... but Kochab keep spreading the word all americans need to know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

ive had better lights but its worth 150 by far. I mean u get what u pay for and for a 400watt hps system for someone to start out its great. most people spend that on cfl's starting out if the buy all the bulbs @ once.
Ive had larger ops with 4-1000watt hps lights but i didnt feel comfortable doing any operations like that anymore since i have gotten married and started trying to live a more responsible life. Here in the us, that would have put me away for a long time. Now i just wanna continue growing my own dank so i can feel sorry for those who dont........because around here there never is any dank for sale.lol

good stuff man!!! Its true but I love their cheapness!... and I started growing with CFLS... and yup... I spent more on CFLs than on the 400 W HPS... wish I would have found HTG before

craigs list has some really cheap equipment!

heres a 400w mh kit for $45 on ebay, eBay Express: 400 watt MH Grow Light BALLAST KIT 400w METAL HALIDE w - Description

45 dollars!!1 I better buy it!!!!!!!!1... haha.. wow thats cheap!

wait... I just looked at it... and its from HTG TOO!!!!1... they dont ship to canada!!! hes canadian!!! maybe there ebay store ships to canada?

lol, thx for the help guys, i've checked out HTG before, life would be much easier if that damn company would only deliver north of the border.. i figure i'll just keep scouring the net and find somethin cheap out there, thx again
