another Aussie, be it in Whitehorse Canada for the moment.

I just got an S9 and on the bottom it says ;
Manufacturer:
Resmed Ltd
1 Elizabeth Macarthur Drive
Bella vista NSW 2153
Australia

then on the box it says:
Made in Singapore

Then it's 300% more expensive to buy in Australia.....

Cheers,
Michael

I haven't used one but have followed the threads in Whirlpool (a popular Aussie forum) where the wisdom of the crowds is usually better than mine. This is different from companies that give you a US mailing address, but many of them are blacklisted by the likes of Amazon, so getting a US resident to buy in their own name is better for some purchases.
There is a company called Borderlinx which will do shipping aggregation and send to Australia. They are actually linked to DHL, and thus are pretty reliable. I have bought all kinds of stuff from the US (including quite a bit of CPAP gear from cpap dot com) without any problems. Hope this helps!
