Well, having had a bit of a short / unhelpful email from Schiffer I would not buy direct from them. I had stated in my e mail to them that I had tried but could not get past an error on one of the fields. Bascially you have options of: outside the US, or one of the US states in the drop down bar. I left it as outside of the US, but it would not let me use that. Don't you hate it when that dreaded red message comes up! As the only other option was to choose a US state, it was not possible to order. Chances are it would not have got to me in NZ. Aarrgh.
I asked if they could tell me when it was going to be available through other major outlets, bearing in mind I couldn't order from them.
I had the message of:
"It will be shipped to the larger distributors if and when they purchase it".
And that was it. No offer of help of how I could order from them directly. And a bit of a huffy response. Not good customer service.
