Sorry, they don't offer the reader via the Cartoys store anymore, since Cartoys stopped carrying the Irex. That is how I got it and, for obvious reasons didn't recheck. The store offering now prices it at 479.- which is much higher than the regular $399.- including shipping inside the US. You now have one more option. Some of the "known freight forwarders" can give you a personal street address for a small surcharge, that would be totally unrecognizable for BestBuy. Shipito, which I used has that option (though I never needed to go that far). There is also a "personal shopping service", which is quite expensive at 15%, however. A last resort.

I am not sure if there are any other US resellers you can try. Perhaps it wouldn't hurt just to go through the purchase process at BestBuy. I suppose the worst that could happen is that they just don't ship and refund your money. On the other hand, they might not know all "known forwarders".
