Assistance with shopping from Australia - Blu-ray Forum

Good evening fellow members.

I have encountered issues in shopping from Siren Visual in Australia. I am not sure if they ship outside of Australia at all. Awaiting an e-mail response from them.

Would anyone here be willing to help me in purchasing an item from them and shipping it to South Africa?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried to see if JB Hi-Fi will ship to you?

I've not ordered from them but have gotten stuff from Madman and I'll use an outfit called dvdorchard to get stuff from Hanabee who'll only ship to Australia and New Zealand.

as Naiera said try jb hi fi they ship all over the place. just make sure after u order to contact them for a tax refund as they charge local tax even to people who don't leave there and shouldn't have to pay it.

That's because our GST is included in retail price (it bothers me that other countries don't do that but with little effect to my life). I think they do tax refunds in store for international travellers too, although as I am not an international traveller I never looked at the criteria.

when I first contacted them about they lied about it and said they have to charge it. wasn't until I linked them to a gov page that said other wise they offered to refund it. then they said they were going to fix it to remove the tax for people who don't have to pay like how amazon.co.uk does but that was way back In dec and it still does it so i'm guessing they hope people don't notice so they can keep the money.
