Prime Exclusive Deal
Just need to register free Amazon AU Prime trial and then cancel it immediately
Ship from Amazon UK so probably you would only need a UK to AU/NZ adaptor, UK has same voltage as NZ so it will be fine

CamelCamelCamel.
Estimated GST is included, Amazon would refund it if NZ custom didn't collected it eventually, YMMV
OzBargain feedback (2021)
Some concerns around product being from the UK. Post was back in 2021 though.
Edit - More recent deal post (July, 2022)
Don't do it! It's restricted in frequencies it can utilises, particularly on the 5ghz range and cannot be firmware'd to enable the missing frequencies. It's not worth paying a close to premium price for such a major flaw, (I got mine, the Aus version, for 660 on eBay after various coupons earlier this year)
You want WiFi 6e versions of routers now
As you can get WiFi cards for them easily now

Wi-Fi 6 vs Wi-Fi 6e: What's the difference?

Other words stick with Wifi 5 or go fully 6e
Agreed. The new 6Ghz band is awesome. Although might be worthwhile waiting maybe 1~2 more years until it becomes a bit more mainstream, as you'd still need to upgrade your client devices to fully support 6e (like your phone or tablet or whatever), otherwise they'll just be running backwards compatibility.
I was looking at the Eero system but I see 6e version isn't available through Amazon AU or US, only Eero's site.
Fixed the link to show 6e only

How do you guys register to be a prime member without an Australian billing address?
Use a random Australian address.
So even if the billing address is AU, the delivery address can be NZ?

Have fun generating your own Australian address on WhereiS.
So even if the billing address is AU, the delivery address can be NZ?
My address book includes two addresses. The address in Australia is billing address for Amazon Prime membership. The address in New Zealand is delivery address for shopping.
at this price range why not get unifi dream machine + AP?
Isn't it wifi 5?
