Important Notice to Customers
Posted by LB | 08/04/08

Shipbuktu is working on alternative service to New Zealand after the delays at Christmas time. We are close to making an announcement and you'll hear from us soon. Please don't use the service till then.

I've emailed the contact address, but have had no reply 3 days later. Does anyone else use this service, and/or know if it's still a going concern?

776293 2009-05-27 04:54:00 No idea.. I don't use it, there's also www.buyusa.co.nz (but never used them either)

The service charges seem rather high, especially since if a company does ship internationally the freight is usually a lot less than what these guys charge

These guys might be able to point you in the right direction. Good luck!

776295 2009-05-29 05:34:00 Just have to point this out: As a standard, data and audio CDs are the same. Exactly the same. The standard was originally only for audio, but they also shoehorned a data spec in later. In other words, for a CD to be called a CD, it has to be compatable with both standards. If the disks aren't playing in your car stereo, it's probably because it's a crappy stereo. Byte-wise, it doesn't matter which disk you use.
