Southerrrngirrl Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 Theres some stuff that I want to purchase from a website that doesn't do shipping to New Zealand. I don't know anyone in the US or Canada so can't get it shipped there then forwarded on. I know theres a website buyusa that allows you to have a virtual address, but that seems to be for larger scale purchases and you have to have an annual subscriotion. All I want is a CD and a couple of t-shirts. Though there might be a website similar to buyusa that might do something like this on a smaller scale?? Anyone know?

the-obstacle Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 Ask someone like Real Groovy to import it for you? They do order on demand sometimes. Flick them an email and see what they'll do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southerrrngirrl Posted October 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 What exactly are you looking for? The CD I'm wanting is the new album by Parabelle. They are a Canadian band. Album is being released in November, comes with an autographed T-shirt, and theres another T-shirt I thought I would get at the same time.. Will try Real Groovy too.

Amazon will ship most things and tell if they don't before you pay for the items and some Ebay sellers don't/won't ship to NZ. From my experience, shipping from Canada is very, very expensive and some people will have cheap items but a very, very large postage bill to make up for the "loss". Good luck.

Tried both, not available on either. Yet. The CD isn't released until 16 Nov so maybe I just have to wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morcs Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 i get heaps of stuff sent from overseas via ebay - most of which comes from USA, UK and hong kong. on ebay, if using the global trading portal, it will only list stuff available to NZ. and even display everything in NZ currency.

Southerrrngirrl Posted October 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 Oh stink, what about Fish Pond? No. I'm wondering if it has something to do with the fact that they aren't signed to a label.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennifer Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 Postage from North America is expensive. My mum sends me shoe box sized packages and it costs her about $50 in postage alone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh really? That is very useful to know....never bothered to look into that. Will it display items that will be sent to NZ but doesn't list the postage for that (our) specific country?
