Yours and my friends in NZ pay more since currency exchanges are really not in their favor right now. Plus everything needs to be shipped in. Do not ever make the mistake of sending someone there a faceted Welo opal for his wife to wear.
The poor guy ended up paying more in duties and GST than it cost me to buy the rough to make it. Wish he had contacted me first.
Edit, or I had ignored the post office here who told me I had to declare what it was. I could have said it was costume jewelry.
