The United States is the cheapest of the 3 markets that have it, and Canada is dearest at about 79% more once converted. In each market's own currency the cheapest listings read US$16.15 in the United States, £16.48 in the United Kingdom and C$39.50 in Canada. Conversions use indicative exchange rates, and postage, duty and import tax are not included, so a cheaper market elsewhere is a fact about listings and not a reason to import.
The market price moved -2.5% over the last 7 days; there is not yet a 30-day window to set that against. It is trading at its 90-day high of US$22.62.

Prices are live listings in each market, in the currency that seller charges. The “≈ USD” column is an indicative conversion for comparison only: not a quote, and not what you'll be billed. Stores generally ship within their own market, and international postage, duty and import tax aren't included, so a cheaper market elsewhere isn't necessarily cheaper to get delivered to you.

Live listings, including used and international sellers: a useful cross-check on the store prices above, and often the only source for older printings. Graded slabs get their own tab, so they never distort the raw price. eBay prices are sellers' asking prices and are never ranked with the stores.
