Can/would you ship it to New Zealand ?

[Rohan]

Hi Iain

Opps, just realised this is for the wedge not the scope. Ignore my previous reply if you read it.

Yes happy to send the wedge to NZ. It weighs a bit though so could be pricey. I'll knock up a postage $ for you when i get home tomorrow. Would accept paypal if that suits?

Cheers

Interested .... postage / freight to Melbourne (3081)?

[Rohan]

Ok here are the weight and dimension details. Source postcode is 2905

Box should be 35cm * 28cm * 20cm. This could change slightly depending on what I find at the cardboard recyling joint

Mount weight is 4.25kg. I would use 5kg as the calculation weight as the packaging and box will add a bit on.

Item will be sent Aus Post so used http://auspost.com.au/products-and-s...alculator.html

I can send O/S but a quick calculation i just did for postage to NZ came in at about $70.

Hi, quite happy with both the cost of the item and the freight charges. I understand that the freight charges may well increase.

Can we revert to more standard email as I understand it better than this method, mainly because I have not used this before <grin>.

My email adddy is slatron@xtra.co.nz

I would be paying by credit card as I do not have access to paypal at this stage. If thats a problem, then please let me know.

Cheers, hope it not too hot where you live. The fire situation over there is well covered in the news here. Iain Watson (ZL1IW)
