When goods are put in the shopping cart, at the bottom you need to put in the drop box which country you are sending too (New Zealand will be at the top). The postage will be caculated on where it is going too, and will combine the size and quanties together to give you a total. There will be the options to send it standard post or courier, and overseas option will default to Airmail. If the item is instock, it is sent the same day the payment clears, standard post is approx 1-3 working days. Courier should be overnight delivery within NZ.
