CB homepage Deal of the Day links never work for me, as expected

[pmccartney]

Does anybody know why when I click on a link for a CrackBerry Deal of the Day, that the link will always takes me to the ca.crackberry.com page rather than item I want to see in the Crackberry Store?
I realize I should do my shopping from the Canada CB Store but the link should show me the item I wish to see first and then redirect me to it in the Canadian section.

Note that I am in Canada and I am using Chrome but it does the same in I.E.

Pretty sure it's because you're in Canada. I just tried it, and it went straight to the deal for me.

Does anyone that takes care of this website know why the links are redirected? Does it need to be this way?

All the accessories are sold through Inverness, FL. I'd assume the deal can't be the same shipping outside the US. I'll get you some confirmation on it.

If you're in Canada you'll be directed to the Canada store. On most days we have the items available in our Canada store as well and will put the links in the post, but on days we have items that aren't available in Canada, the only link will be to the US store (if you click that one you get redirected to the CA store by default).

I appreciate the reasoning behind it. I would still prefer to see the product any way (quickly via the link). If I like it then I would take the time to search for it in the CrackBerry Canada Store. Unfortunately this product is not there.
BTW - your right about the shipping. The Body Glove case I wanted to look at, on sale for $16.95 US, would cost an additional $41.95 to have shipped to me. lol

Actually we have 2 stores, one in Canada and one in Florida.

Thanks Michelle! I'd forgotten that. Maybe there is something to that "it'll kill brain cells" stuff.

Work is being done to get the Canada store better integrated. Current it's as described as above. If you're on a Canada IP address you'll be redirected to ca.crackberry.com. The Canada store ships product from Canada (cheap shipping for Canada). If you want to not be in the Canada store, there is a link that'll take you back to the US/international store (which does ship from Florida). But if you're in Canada, you'll want to use the Canada store for better shipping.

Thanks for shopping with us!
