I just had another look on Amazon Canada and for now it seems the Instant Pot Smart WiFi is back from third-party sellers and actually for not too bad of a price. It is listed for $199.99 regular and currently on sale for $149.99, but no free prime delivery and a $16 shipping fee in addition to the price. Last time I looked maybe 6 or 8 weeks ago I also saw it from third party sellers, but it was over $300 Canadian. Given the current exchange rate from Canadian to US Dollars the regular US price of $149.99 is pretty much exactly $200 give or take $5, so it is the same as the regular price in the US. If you can get it for $89.99 US on sale that would be about $120 Canadian so still $30 or 20% cheaper than the sale price here and if you factor in the $16 shipping it's a $46 difference. Still that isn't so bad, I put it in my cart, but I think I'll wait a week and see if there is a better Black Friday or Cyber Monday deal and if there is I may break down and buy one. I could then sell our stand-alone rice cooker and slow cooker, both are pretty good quality and I may get $60 or $70 for both of them so if I could get the Instant Pot for $129.99 or even $139.99 Canadian I might do that.

That is how I bought mine back in July. It was for $89.99. I use my pot weekly. I don't normally set it from the phone, although they have improved that. I use the buttons, which beep when pressed, and just get confirmation from the app on my phone.
