I realize this is an unusual request, but I'm looking for a Commonwealth cousin from Australia to assist me in purchasing a number of ladies' electric razors, for a Sci-Fi project I'd like to work on.

Sadly, the "North American Razor Cartel" has been very successful in keeping these inexpensive products from being imported for our use here.

I'd like to purchase 8 of them, and have them shipped to the USA. I'll pay with Paypal, and would like insurance in order to protect us both. I'll cover the costs of the products, international shipping, insurance, Paypal fees, and any compensation desired for your time.

The electric razors can be found here:

As you can see, they're relatively inexpensive, which is a plus.

Please let me know if you are willing to assist, by PMing me, or e-mailing me at:

No, this isn't a belated April Fool's joke.

I guess the AU at the end of the product code is for Australia/ Australasia?

The closest I can find in the UK is this on Amazon link

Makes a nice change from old computer mice bodies!


Now to explain to my wife why the Amazon recents list has this in…

Thanks for the reply, Andrew.

Yep, Australia.

Alas, the one from the UK is a different shape than the one available from "down under".

I need the more swoopy-shaped one, with the dial on the body. Interesting, the different designs with the same description and model number for various continents.

I'll be a character witness, if you need it, with the wife. ;-)

Both the UK and Australian versions would make great vehicles!

Thanks for the replies, and viewings.

I've found someone to assist me with my little project.
