Hey,
I've been interested in getting myself a pair of graphite nunchakus for a while now, but the problem is that I have yet to find any store in Australia that sells them (online or otherwise), and I run the risk of getting them seized by customs if i was to order them from the US or elsewhere if they were to be listed as nunchucks. Unforutnately, nunchucks are considered a restricted weapons in Australia.

Does anyone happen to know of a store that can somehow helps in bypassing customs? I know that prochuxs have been sent as 'aerobic sticks' in countries where they're not entirely legal  :roll:

any information would be awesome. thanks!

I don't know of any shops other that BnBVids (pro-chux) that will post aerobic sticks for fear of legal repercussions.

You could perhaps get another member to purchase them and post them on to you - but you'd need to trust each other to pay/post as promised.

Yes, that was also another idea i had, but that still involves getting the parcel past customs, and it would involve presenting a false declaration as to what they really are. Not too sure i'd  want to place another member at legal risk, it wouldnt be fair. :-(

How about the old dissassemble and ship strategy? Or have they caught on to that  :-P
