    Shipping spotting scope US to NZ

    Hey,

    Has anyone shipped for the US to NZ recently? If so who did you use?

    I checked Youshop which I have used in the past but their prices have gone through the roof. Would need to send it to a US address to be forwarded.
    Or find someone thats heading over there and be prepared to bring it back for me..

    Cheers

    Got a rangefinder through shipito.com last year. Was a bit of a punt and they certainly clip the ticket but still worth it in this case. Won’t do anything that attach to a firearm but all the others like youshop etc I checked out seen to have a blanket ban on hunting hardware and wouldn’t even accept a rangefinder…

    Surely they realize the correct name for a rangefinder is a measurement tool for surveying property boundaries.

    I bought a spotting scope in a few months ago but ordered it via a company I’ve bought optics off numerous times.

    Postage was more than a scope but that was to be expected as the package was far bigger than a scope box… postage cost me US$86

    Nil issues with it getting to me

    You mean for the golf range.

    @Jimmy james Gidday how you getting on with this, I'm in the States now, leaving LA on 29th. If you can get it to our hotel there I'd be happy to chuck it in for ya.
    PM if that sounds like a bit of you.
