Good to know for Kiwi shoppers
GST of 15% applies to imports. On items up to NZ$1,000 the overseas seller may charge it at checkout; Customs doesn't collect duty or GST at the border below that.
Several orders from the same supplier arriving on the same day can be treated as one shipment and go over NZ$1,000.
Low-value air imports carry a NZ$2.54 levy (incl. GST) per declaration, usually passed on by the courier.
US shops charge in US dollars. Your bank converts to NZD and may add a foreign transaction fee.
In the shop's own words

Questions people ask

How do I get eBay orders in New Zealand?

Why might eBay cancel my order, and what can I do?
Stores can cancel an order when the card or billing address fails their checks, when an item can't go to that address, or when their rules exclude package-forwarding addresses. Read the cancellation email for the reason, contact the store with your order number, and if forwarding addresses aren't accepted, use a buy-it-for-me service instead of ordering to the same address again.
When should I use a buy-it-for-me service for eBay?
Use one when eBay won't ship to your country and won't take a US address service, or when it declines your card. The service orders with a US payment method and ships the item on to you for a fee; some items can be declined, so check first.
How do I avoid a missing package when I ship eBay orders to a US address?
Copy the address exactly as your address service shows it, and put your suite or customer ID in address line 2. Keep the order confirmation and the tracking number. If tracking says delivered but the package isn't in your account yet, wait the time your service quotes, then send it the tracking number and order details.
What should I check with eBay sellers?
Each seller ships separately, so every order has its own tracking number. Make sure the seller has your suite or customer ID in address line 2, and message the seller if tracking hasn't been uploaded.
