Hey,

I'm trying to buy one of the new Super Soaker Flash Floods. I've checked the local toy stores and nobody seems to carry them here in Perth, Australia. I tried to buy online from both Hasbro and Amazon, and alas they don't ship internationally. Is there any other way I can get one of these new water guns? Ebay has none at the moment either.

Can anyone help?

Down in Australia, huh? Some members here may be able to help. However, I fear shipping costs to Australia might add a significant amount onto total costs.

I'm not too concerned about shipping costs. It's a fact of life here in Aus if you want anything cool off the net. We also pay about 1.5 times the amount after conversion from US$ to AU$. Oh, and the banks whack on there damn fee for conversion too. bastards.

If anyone is interested in helping that would be cool.

Otherwise if there are other people in Aus wanting one, post here and I'll consider getting an account with my local wholesaler, who stock Hasbro products. Maybe I'll could get a little ebay AU store going.

Someone should let ZOCCOZ in on this. He was looking for someone to buy stuff on eBay in the U.S for him.
