Even with cheaper shipping you are looking at ~NZ$134 landed - not worth it. Dearest Amazon price I saw (where I bought mine) was high 30s but then back to the problem of won't ship direct.
So, solve one problem, but create another.

PS: A quick look locally and found 1 @ NZ118 but it may not include a case.

There are other things in the same box included in the freight, so its actually cheaper than the NZ$118. Getting bits for my quad that I can't get in NZ.

just got the same fukn notification for a 20moa rail

it is a piece of aluminium for crying out loud.

ringing the NZ call centre is useless coz they just say the warehouse is overseas so email them...

ah well, I have filled in the "talk to us" form and await their response...

you shop - you shit...

Just had the same issue on a knife coming from USA. I phoned them and sent them the invoice and am awaiting shipping. Second time they have stopped a shipment. Last time I will be using you shop shit.

USA pisses me off. Can't even send an arrow rest! Dangerous goods, ITAR restrictions blah blah blah. Sending it back to the seller and they'll send it for the same money....

I got a set of Talleys rings sent no probs - pretty sure I was honest with the description too? Haven't tried getting a scope in yet but curious to know if anyone has had issues.

Or the mount that holds the optics. They refused to send me a pepr style scope mount a few weeks ago.

A week later I had one sent from China no worries.

Why bother even chancing it with them? They have had heaps of negative press on this and the other forum re their antics. Also forum postings on issues with NZ Post if you try to send a scope out of the country and on that day they have a head ache or whatever. Problem is they do clearly display their policy – well at my wee post office they do, so if you chance your arm…..
My little drama with Youshop was over a calibrated test weight (small cylindrical piece of steel) - no rifle part connotation there - and they declared it dangerous goods and then after further pressing, a firearm part FFS. Offered to either destroy it or send back to seller at my cost. Took me 2 weeks to sort it b4 they finally agreed it wasn’t a firearm part/dangerous goods.

Talley's must be the go then, Warne were stopped for me!

Give shipito.com a go. Proven to be easy as for me. Ordered $1500 worth of Kuiu without any trouble, didn't get stung either

I know it aint scopes or rails, but just FYI

Just got notification last night from YouFmeoff that they have ascertained that indeed, as declared, my new Bark River knife is not a prohibited item and that, after waiting two weeks for them to come to that decision, I can now pay for it to be shipped to NZ!!

So glad I have my own personal freight forwarder stateside, so I don't have to deal with pooshop.
