There are a bunch of things on Amazon they simply wont sell to NZ. Apart from obvious airline safety regs, I guess much of it to be distributor rules so I'm not sure just how that will impact availability or pricing if it is ex Oz. I guess the same rules will apply and local distributors will come down hard on any local retailer selling on Amazon?
Retailers here are said to be ******** themselves at the prospect. I would imagine AusPost or whomever Amazon cooks up a deal with for freight to NZ, will be wetting themselves at the prospect. I heard a stat the other day that there are only about 7% of online sales in NZ. I find that incredibly low.
