Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I want to purchase more CMM2 computers. Bought the ones I have from RICTECH LTD in New Zealand but cannot now. Can anybody tell me where I can purchase them?

Thanks!

EDIT: Moved to correct forum. (Grogster)

Just in case anyone is wondering why, it's cos of the new American tariffs.
Well, not the tariffs themselves per se', but the extra mountain of paperwork that I have to now complete here at my end, if I want to send anything into USA.

If I were a private individual sending a parcel to USA, that's pretty simple, but as I am a company entity, the amount of new extra red-tape I have to complete - because I am a company exporting to the USA - is so annoying and frustrating, that I have basically given up on sending things to USA now.

It would be a different story, if I were exporting hundreds of thousands of units or something, but you still have to do all the hoop-jumping, weather it is 1 unit or a million units, so it becomes financially uneconomical to spend all the extra time and fight the bureaucracy around this, for fifty or sixty units per year.

I keep planning to talk to someone at New Zealand Post about this, but actually getting to talk to a HUMAN who knows what they are talking about with this, and not a equally frustrating dumb AI chat-bot zombie, is much harder then you think.
