I'd seen this awning on vanagon.com but hadn't followed up because of the
mentioned $495 cost.  When I saw Malcolm Stebbins' post, I thought this was
a REALLY good deal:

...snip.... the price in CDN$ is 395.  At about 1.5 to
1 that makes the price in USDs about USD$265.  It is a really cute
awning, and for that price in USDs, it is quite reasonable.......

When I called, though, the price quoted in US dollars was $350, plus about
$20 shipping to the US, depending on destination.  May still be a good
deal, but not nearly as good as to his Canadian customers.  The guy is in
Vancouver, appears to be a one-man operation.  Colors available include
blue, dark blue, burgundy, green, and peach.  Still debating about whether
to order one-looks really neat.
