This is the build I am buying, but the problem is, is that I live in New Zealand, and Newegg and maybe Amazon do not ship to New Zealand, this loving sucks. Can some of you go on a little hunt to find some New Zealand retailers that sell exactly this. I have found this so far

But it is massively overpriced, stuff sucks guys. wat do?

I thought amazon was world wide (Accept North Korea and China)

New Zealand is awesome and everyone should ship to them.

New Zealand is part of the Amazon Global program so you should be able to order from there.

Have it shipped to someone in the US who can then ship it to New Zealand?

I dont know what the costs would be though

Why do they accept North Korea?

600 is not massive. that is like bare minimum for a gaming comp
and you even have monitor included so that dosnt even count.

he means for the individual part he was able to find that'll ship to new zealand, not the entire computer itself

I'd pay $600+ alone for the graphics card lol

Well, I guess I can try and order it all from amazon, try and get it bundled together to avoid the massive shipping fees to NZ.

Edit:

Looks like I was able to get it all from amazon.


So yeah, looks like I am in luck, even though the prices are a little higher.

Also slight bump, even with the discounts that amazon has, the price is still pretty high.


How much would it cost to ship, if I sent it to an american friend, then he sent it on to me via newegg and a shipping company.

Obviously it wouldn't be $250 extra, but what approximately would it be.

$5 and a box of jolly ranchers.

what the forget bro we're in a recession, i can't pay that much. what about half the box.
