International order confusion

Post by chiphead » Thu Oct 09, 2014 7:33 am

I have been recently diagnosed and am looking at purchasing a machine online (Resmed S10) and have it shipped to Australia.
I am confused as some online suppliers say they cannot ship Resmed or Philips machines outside of of US due to agreements with those companies, yet they have listed on there site adapters that will allow those machines to be used in Australia.
Has anyone purchased a Resmed machine and had it shipped internationally?
If they have would they like to send me a PM with the companies name and web address or contact details.

Thanks

Try secondwindcpap.com.
I know people outside the US that have bought both the ResMed and Respironics machines from them.

cpap.com and other online sellers have to agree to the Resmed and Respironics policy of prohibiting shipping their products outside the US. Trust me...cpap.com would love you ship to you. Used to be only Resmed that enforced the ban but last year Respironics decided to play hardball too. And its any product from what I hear...not just machines. Masks too can't be shipped or parts for masks.

There are shipping companies you can use that forward your stuff almost anywhere in the world for this reason.
