Too bad that Australians can't buy it!

I really wanted this but I'm getting this message on checkout:
"*** We're sorry. The item can't be shipped to your selected destination".
I live in Australia. Shame.

Being George Washington is an amazing book, bringing one of the most significant historical figures to life in a very engaging and relevant way. A masterpiece from Glenn Beck. BUT.....

This will be the last overpriced Kindle book I buy - how can an e-book be more expensive than a hardcover ? Why should the Australian distribution arm of the publisher overprice a book I am buying from Amazon in the US ? Now publishers are directly setting the price through their agency distribution model and taking away any pricing discretion Amazon have, the consumer is being ripped off. The situation is even worse in Australia where this e-book is more than $4 more than the US Kindle version. There is quite a rebellion on Amazon to attempt to fight this - REFUSE TO PAY THESE RIP OFF PRICES FOR E-BOOKS. The market should speak. Simon & Shuster seem to one of the worst offenders here.

Instead, if you are an Australia reader buy the hardcover books from Amazon US or UK (free shipping to Australia) for a fair price, and call the local arm of the publisher and make your views known. Also let your friends know. Or just wait for the paperback version. At least this minimises revenue to the local distributer. Congratulations publishers, your complete disrespect for your customers will further harm the Australian book industry and force readers to buy offshore. It will also hamper the growth of e-books if people know they are being ripped off. All this will do is give people a reason to look elsewhere for the e-book and increase the piracy problem.

I love this series but just a heads up this particular DVD set is not playable in the US.

The bowl itself is fine, but the attachments cannot be used in Australia as, even though it lists as being suitable for all stand types, this actually means "in the USA only".  All European stands (which is the type that is used in Australia) have a completely different attachment point.

I ordered the two parts required for the blade attachment in Australia and, even with this additional cost, it was still cheaper to buy the item from Amazon than it was to buy the entire unit in Australia.

And it makes fantastic ice cream - quite soft when it first comes out of the bowl (which is how my husband likes it) but if put into a container and frozen for a few hours, it comes out like store bought icecream.

I've only been using it for a few weeks now, but the bowl is now a permanent fixture in the freezer and we'll probably recoup the money from buying icrecream within the next month.

And the possibilities are endless - when you've thought before "oh, I'd really like that icrecream, but not with white choc chips, I'd prefer dark orange chocolate" or - my favourtie "why doesn't anyone make a lime sorbet"? - you can just go and do it.

It's all really easy to clean, which is a bonus and the book that it came with was really useful - a couple of good starter recipes.

Perfect for everyday use and making something special for dinner parties.

The version was from Australia or Africa and was not compatible with our system.  In addition, it froze, and then some kind of virus ended up on our external drive.  The box was damaged, too. I had to order and pay for it online to play it!!! Lousy user that set up this business, or was unaware of this problem?

Despite the fact that this series was shot in Queensland Australia, this set is not available in region 4 PAL. It is in region 1. This should be made clear on the ad. My DVD player has no problem with this set, which arrived in Australia promptly and in good order. My Samsung BluRay player won't touch it though. I am thoroughly enjoying this series.

Well, I'd be in at the US price, but they want US$11.99 (over $15 Australian) here in Oz. How can this be?

Great if you're in the US. There are lots of ingredients that we in Australia have never heard of :(

This product was sold to me as "Ships to Australia", so I naturally assumed that it would work in Australia. However, it was destroyed in operation because in Australia we have 220VAC whereas the US is on 110VAC. Many devices are capable of 110-250VAC operation, so my assumption was reasonable. It's not worth returning it because even though Amazon will refund up to $15 postage, it will cost more than that and the time and trouble is not worth it. Also, due to house-moving, I only switched it on about  2 months after buying it so there's not enough time to send it back!
I really don't think this is a one-star item - the price is GREAT compared to Australia and I'm sure it's  good item, but one-star is sadly my experience.
In short, a very good item and very fair Amazon policies, but a one-star experience. PLEASE at least show the operating  voltage on the description if you are going to export this.

Discs are not playable in Australia, nowhere in the product specifications did it say these discs were region coded. They are useless to me,

I'm so disappointed that the digital copies only work in the UK or Ireland! I feel like that should have been better communicated.

I've grown to love Australian video series like this one.  My DVD odes not work right and I was counting on seeing Dr Blake online.  But they will only allow me to buy home videos which will not work.  What can I do?

I searched specifically for Australia. This showed up and bought it won't work

Bought this and sent it to niece in Ireland. Problem is they can't use it over there as it is valid only in the US.  Alternative is to pay shipping from US to Ireland defeating the whole purpose of the gift card.

I've been using the trial version of this for two weeks and when I saw this deal I was intent on purchasing my upgrade.  But this is only available to USA residents - Why?  What about your loyal customers around the rest of the world?

I love the product but hate the way this is sold hence only one star.  Discrimination of the highest order.

I was able to buy the kindle with a credit card issued in England, just to learn after I threw all the boxes away, that I will never be able to buy books fot it, as I don't have an american adress, nor an american credit card. Amazon shouldn't sell it without the required card.
