  I don't think this ships to Australia.
  I can add it to the basket, but when I try to estimate shipping, I get an error.

    Working alright here. I'm not sure what the problem could be.

    It's not available for delivery to Amazon Lockers/Pickup locations. Is that where you're trying to get it delivered?

      Sorry, my mistake. It gives the error message on the estimate, but it does allow me to go to the check out.
      Thanks.

  How'd you get $146 Delivered?
  At the Place Order stage it comes up with

  Order Summary
  Items: AUD 144.29
  Shipping & handling: AUD 7.29
  Total before tax: AUD 151.58

  Order total: AUD 151.58

  AUD go down?

  Edit: I assume you order in USD on amazon?

    Amazon's currency conversion rates are a bit of a rip-off.

    You can get a better exchange rate by paying in US dollars using a debit or credit card which doesn't charge foreign currency conversion fees.

    The total will end up being roughly $146 AUD.

      Righto, thanks for the clarification.
      Currently using mebank mastercard credit card (1.5% conversion fee), which I believe is still better than the amazon conversion which is like 3%?

        It looks like both of ME Bank's MasterCards charge 2.5%.

        On their factsheets here and here, they list a

        • 1.5% International transaction fee
        • 0.2% MasterCard conversion fee
        • 0.8% MasterCard cross border fee

        Sneaky.

        @Bupkis: Wow that is very sneaky indeed. Thanks for pointing that out! Now I'm stumped on whether to order in AUD or USD…

        edit: actually 2.5% still seems better than the amazon conversion I believe

  @crazyLad: Not a whole lot of difference either way.

  Even at $151.58, I think that's still cheaper than it's ever been.

  Maybe you can use this to get the price down? https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/217094

  Yeah I believe it's the cheapest price I've seen.
  Oh cheers I shall have a look at it now!
