No great ideas Glenn, other than I'd trade living in New Zealand for
being able to buy in the U.S. any day.

One way you *might* go would be to link up with someone you trust, front
them the money for them to buy here and ship to you there. Depending on
what you buy and your risk tolerances maybe that would work for you.

Anyway, whether you're o the South Island or the North Island you live
in one of the coolest places I've ever traveled.

Cheers,
