Rick's collection is one of my favourites because they came from trips from all over the world. 
Yeah, my first 30 or so pairs were from all over the world.  A few "International" purchases since, but of my 30 initial pairs, I would say 4 were purchased in Canada.   
 
Auckland, Sydney, Brisbane, Manley, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Honolulu, Maui, Seattle, LA, Spokane (love that town!), San Antonio, Chicago, Seoul, Tokyo, Beijing, ...a few more I can't think of.   
 
My favorite pair bought during travel was my Ruby Juliet from a surf store in Manley, AUS.  They charged me the same price as the other Juliets and I got my tax back at the airport.  Those lil' rippas!
