Where can I buy a toshiba alu2 with online shipping to an international destination?

Been looking around for a 1TB 2.5" Toshiba Alu2 hard drive and as I live in New Zealand I have to buy online. My problem is I can seam to find a store that ships internationally... There are alot of UK shops selling them but they only ship within the UK and Ireland. Anyone out there managed to find somewhere that ships internationally?!
Thanks for the links guys but have been looking around for what hdd suits me and I have decided I really want an alu2 and only an alu2. Unfortunately it only seams to be available in central Europe. Amazon doesn't seam to stock them and amazon.co.uk doesn't ship to NZ... :(
I'm aware the Toshiba Canvio is available to me but I'm more interested in the alu2 for the aluminum casing I don't need the USB 3.0 version and it costs more anyway.

Is there anyone out there who knows of an online shop with international shipping for these? Even Ebay only has a couple of the 500GB versions.
