Thread: Who will ship powder north island

Reloaders wont, GC said they would last time I asked but wont now, any others that will?

Get someone who either lives near, or is forever at, an outlet that sells what you want to buy and send on to you...I seen that article about the courier drivers kicking those packages the other day and thought..."one day mate it is going to blow your bloody foot off"

Yep that's probably my best bet, cant see myself braving the drive into the city
I saw that too, arseholes they were

GunCity won't ship powder anymore ???

Aww stink. Shame they haven't pulled it from the website, they're still listing free delivery for over $100 purchases.

Another option :
Workshop Innovation - Gunsmithing & Reloading Tools: Reloading Stuff +, Powder
Julian will meet you at Albany.

Website is ChCh he said, don't need licence to buy but they would like proof of it too, I thought retailers wanted our money
No 2209 or 550 in store

Can cope with Albany

Wanting to see a license is bullshit, components for making it are not classed as ammunition, Reloaders have always said they wont ship powder so I get my 70yo mother in law to get powder, primers and other bits and post them to me, never been an issue, and a size 1 post box only costs $3.50 to send way cheaper than them. Guess she doesn't look like a terrorist!

But getting your 70 year old mother to send powder is highly illegal not to mention stupidly dangerous.
Gun shops don't want ship powder round the country now because there is probably on one or two carriage companies that will move the powder and that comes at a cost. I recently inquire about getting 1kg out of Auckland to Tauranga and the fee for the dangerous goods permit was around $70 plus freight cost, and also the shop has the runaround of having to complete all the DG paperwork. So in my case it's actually cheaper for me to drive up there and get it or in this instance I was lucky enough to find someone heading my way a couple of weeks later who picked up my prepayed package and brought it to me. And anyone can do this as the picker upee doe's need a FAL

WTF is this then , confused slightly

I hear yah, but this is the 1st time I've heard GC won't ship powder - they did it for me. Did you place a web order then find out or were you on the phone to them 1st ??

I just called them, don't have a web account. Maybe I have a terrorist sounding voice

Haha ! Saying durka durka in every sentence probably didn't help

Sign up for an account, it's piss easy takes 2" . If there's a problem with your purchase - eg: not in stock despite the web saying there is - they will call/email you. But I've ordered a couple of things thru GC which can be handy with the free shipping, but I buy primarily from Reloaders and WorkShop Innovations.

its those glowing piggy eyes....
