Does anyone know if a place in NZ will be selling these? I'm in real need of a new stick and I want to get this one for the PS3.
Trademe, although I was looking the other day and there aren't any there. You might even have some luck at livewire in town. I know Nathan got one from there quite recently, but i wouldn't get my hopes up.
I bought mine from eBay - arrived in just under 2 weeks, well packaged and in perfect working order. Cost me $326 NZ including shipping (which was fucking expensive, by the way... $90 US)
I'm not aware of anyone in NZ selling these, or even planning to sell these... so an import is probably your best bet Turns out I'm all shit - refer to Bills and Grahams posts
Bought mine from this crowd: http://stores.ebay.com/East-Luna - a little costly on shipping, and I'm sure you could hunt around for a slightly better bargain, but I'm not really complaining either... was totally worth it IMO.
Livewire are supposed to be getting some soon.

...ordered it on 22nd...arrived today!!! (27th)
cost me $330...but the way the NZ dollar is at the moment you may get it cheaper...I've been following the NZ dollar since I made my purchase and it has dropped $10 since the 22nd.
Some may say it's pricey...and there's only one option for shipping to NZ (which is the most expensive - EXPRESS SHIPPING)
but I'm a sneaker freak...If I didn't buy this arcade stick...I'd just spend the cash on shoes ;D
I'm hella stoked to have another stick!!!
Lols I brought my 2 TE sticks a month ago start of april from Livewire Auckland, $330 ea Yikes! I asked for a discount but Neh! sez Donna the Manager.
I rang them on the 28th April about my pre-order <.< ;D and enquired on any T.E's available, they were out of stock and ordering the new SSF4 Sticks.

ooh those slim TE sticks are very nice.
I think once ive managed to get my daugter (nearly 6) to pull off Rose's Ultra1 (her fav) then there is no way my wife can object to getting a 2nd stick :)
she was pretty close last night on my HRAP
Livewire will be getting the TE-S (Round 2s) in but no more normal TEs, cant order em in anymore. Trademe would be the best beat to try and get one at a cheapish price.
Arksys are doing a limited run on BB style TE sticks.
Unfortunately ship to U.S only.

Livewire just got a recent shipment of Round 2 TEs recently. As of Saturday, I know they have two PS3 and two 360 TE sticks. And a various assortment of crappier sticks too.
PS3 TE Round 2 sticks $329 from Mightyape at the moment.

vs $305 NZ (inc shipping) direct from Capcom at current exch rate.
So not to bad if you want to pay $25 more and not have to wait.
Especially considering Capcom won't do tracking on international shipping so if it gets lost in transit you're fucked.
