.
Where do you live?
hey in new zealand seems to be abit of a trend with the states iv also tried purchaseing car parts for an old american car same thing
.
Unclear what you’re trying to say. A little punctuation goes a long way. 
So, you live in Canada, and XTerra won’t ship North of the 49th? Do you live close enough to the border that you could have them shipped to one of those US Mail outlets and just go pick it up when it arrives? We use http://www.thelettercarrier.com/ in Point Roberts for our purchasing needs, when they won’t ship to Canadian addresses. Or to simply avoid paying the excessive FedEx & UPS ‘Brokerage’ fees.
I was trying to buy some bike parts direct from Specialized the other day. They too will not ship to Canada. At least not from their online retail site.
down in new zealand is it a hassel for them?or just to much time involved posting
.
Probably just an effort to keep it simple for them. Not having to deal with overseas shipments. They probably did some math, and came to some conclusion that the demand was not high enough. When in reality, business is business, and if the buyer is willing to pay the shipping, then why wouldn’t you?
Provide them feedback, and let them know that they aren’t getting your business because of their shipping policies. About all you can do, until they realize it is in fact the 21st Century.
hi otto great way to put it ,yea i left sum feed back
.
Use youshop.co.nz for vendors that don’t want the hassle of shipping here.
If you want - send me the money via paypal with however much it’ll be to ship them to you and I’ll happily buy them for you and send them over.
Lemme know. I won’t charge you anything for going to the post office or whatever. I’ll just order it from Xterra and then take that same box it comes in and shoot it to you in New Zealand.
In the mean time, check out the Speed Tubes from DeSoto (https://www.desotosport.com/product/ST2). I use one for races, it’s great! Use it in combination with either their Speed Vest, or the Black Pearl pullover, depending on water temps. Also works great on it’s own, if the water is really warm. Plus, they don’t discriminate, they will ship to NZ.
From their FAQ:
Is the Speedtube something that I can wear in the pool to help my swim training. I have a problem with not being able to keep my legs up that well in the pool as they are so dense from running and cycling.
Yes, the Speedtube a great tool to help in training. It is essentially like a pull buoy but it allows for a more accurate stroke due to the fact that you can still use your legs to assist in the torso rotation. After all, torso rotation should start from the legs and hips, not from the reach of the arms.
There are quite a few university swim teams using the Speedtube for this very purpose.
