Australian Supplier for Player One Uranus-C

Does anyone know where to source a Player One Uranus-C camera in Australia? Testar are out of stock and didn't seem to have any idea when they might get them back in.
What are peoples experience ordering directly from the Player One website? My past experience with Chinese manufacturers is that sometimes they can be very fast, but others can take months.

P.S., I realize that the entire country is in the middle of a week long public holiday so that nothing will be processed until after the 8th.

I had no issue ordering directly from Player One. They accept PayPal, which is totally reputable, and the messages I exchanged with the team there when I wanted to change my order were very prompt.

Mine arrived in 7 calendar days after FedEx took it on a tour of Asian capitals.

Good to know. Did you use the free post option or 'Express Shipping' ($19)?

Express shipping was included when I ordered mine. I wouldn’t trust the postal service of either country

Just a quick update for anyone else who is interested, I ordered on the 7th (while China was still on holidays), it shipped on the 8th, and its already in Australia on the 14th.
