Hello.

I've been looking on Bible.org and have been considering buying an NET Bible 1st edition in black leather. However, the shipping costs are huge to Australia. Does anyone know of an Australian distributor so I can save a few dollars on postage?

Cheers,
Dave :cyclops:

I've noticed the NET bible 1st edition is available via Amazon for Kindle. Maybe they are worth an ask for the ordinary format? There are some used reader's editions. No idea about their freight though, I do not use them.

It would be good if someone here took the NET on board, though. Is Koorong your Christian book outlet in WA? Not sure. I know they are probably the biggest over this side of the country, and I have been slack in not going to recommend they stock the NET amongst all the other versions they have on their shelves. Again, maybe they are worth an ask. If they ordered in bulk, then you might get a flow on relief in the price of one item.

Of course, if you have to, our Aussie dollar is so healthy against the green-back at the moment that now is the time to buy from the US if you are able. Check out the Christmas specials - they may enable you to buy more than one item and so spread the freight.

I've emailed Koorong (our largest Christian book chain) with a request to stock NET bibles, and have dobbed you in David as a person to contact. Please pray something comes of this!

Koorong response is on the way to Todd.
Hopefully Dave Hudson and our other Aussie members will be able to source their NET bible locally sometime soon.
