I paid the list msrp, $217 for the set. The carpet in the new gen is a very odd shape, and these conform quite well to it.

The weathertech mats are awsome, they really save your carpet. A great addition to any ride.

Weathertech is a superior product. We have started distributing them as well this year. They look great. I think I'm picking up a set for the Taurus.

Hey Sean - not to be a dick or anything, but can anyone at Northern / Weathertech explain why after 24 months of Canadian money at par with US, why a Focus cargo liner is 143.00 here and 109.00 in the US?
I understand that the cost of doing business here is perhaps a bit more than in the US (actually our corporate taxes are the same as or lower than in the US) ... but certainly not 32% more.
This is the kind of thing that drives me and a lot of other Canadians off the deep end - this is why I go to the states every couple of weeks to pick up dozens of packages for me, my family and you guys. This is why I get up at 5:30 am on Saturdays to be at the border for 7:00 - because I refuse to support the inequity.
Bottom line: either Weathertech is ripping off Northern Performance, or Northern is ripping us off.
Unless someone has a rational explanation that makes sense I will not be buying weathertech in this country.

One reason is different packaging. Us Canadians all speak French and require it on all packaging. Although the difference is quite steep.

Been there - done that. Everything I did for Ford and other clients that originated in the US had to be translated. What I spent on translation I saved on other things like basic layout, original photography and copywriting.
Additionally, and I don't know this to be true of weathertech, but a lot of retail packaged products come already translated into English, French and Spanish - so there would be zero additional cost in that case.

i know this is really old but i just seen this. the major reason for the preice is freight our price includes freight and the us doesnt you have to pay additional cost on the shipping
but we also have to pay taxes/duties/brokerage to get it to us
plus it also pays my salary :p
incases where we live close to the boarder it may be cheap for us to go across the border and pick it up their and not have to drive to far into the states
