Tokyo Marui Thompson M1A1 - Need some advice of current prices

Hi everyone, I am just starting in the Airsoft sport.
In the past I had some Airsoft guns, most cheap ones, and now I want to purchase some good ones, particularly WWII Airsoft guns and would like some help on purchasing the Tokyo Marui Thompson M1A1.
I know we cannot order Airsoft guns from outside Canada, so my only option, as far as I know, is 007 Airsoft and A&A's, which have basically the same price.
I got the follwoing price quote from 007 Airsoft for the Tokyo Marui Thompson M1A1:

Tokyo Marui Thompson M1A1 $ 595, SANYO Battery 8.4V 1800mA $ 75, or EASTPOWER Battery 8.4V 4200mA $ 120, and charger $ 35
I have multiple hicap mag instock $ 80

So I would like to know if $705 for a Tokyo Marui Thompson is too much or is it the best deal I can possible get here in Canada.
I've just messaged John in order to get age verification in Edmonton, so i was wondering if i can find a cheaper TM Thompson in the Classifieds when I get verified.

I also want to know what battery would be better for the Thompson, in terms of quality and compatibility, if the price is not an issue: the Sanyo 8.4V 1800mA or the EASTPOWER Battery 8.4V 4200mA.


I know in the US you can order one TM Thompson for $350 with battery and charger, so i was just impressed by the price difference in Canada and would really appreciate any insights into that.

Thank you
