See if forummaster is interested in opening a branch in New Zealand,what's the population density there?'Course catalogs are a whole lot less expensive,where's Thor Heyerdal when you need him.Bigbob

Isn't there a dealership that carries the product in New Zealand, or one that will be willing to do so if asked?

Wilson may even ship out "free samples" to a dealership if it means the possibility of picking up a good quantity of business in a new country! Might be worth checking into.

I can certainly back up whaT Kiwikid is say shipping to this part of the world is very expensive. Six months ago I ordered one Shakespear NBS2010 verticle which was sent with UPS and the shipping charge was $65.00, just as well it wasn't an imax as that would have been $20.00 more. There are very few shops selling CB radio equipment in New Zealand now and no companies are importing sideband radio's. Population density is only 4 million people so if you want the equipment you have no choice but to pay the freight charges.
