| Need a favor from one of you down under.. Ok, my son's 8th birthday is coming up in April and even though I already got him a 4 wheeler on the way he has this new kick about wanting a "real" boomerang from australia like daddy has.( acquired on one of my many trips there whilst in the military)
So, I figured this is the perfect place to see if I can get a fellow fireblader to help hook a brother up and acquire one for me and send it my way.
I can of course send money via paypal before said purchase and shipment is made..
Shoot me a pm if you can help me out. Thanks
Also willing to pay for repeated shipments of a case of VB but that is another topic all together.

Z... | Yer was thinking that, perhaps some in NT might have better luck. I remember them being quite plentify up there when we went around Australia about 18 years ago.  |

| Re: Need a favor from one of you down under.. I spent alot of time in NT over the years during training exercises and the availability of them was quite good and cost was surprisingly low. Of course the places where the military bases are located happen to be severely over-populated with Aborigini's...
Edit: glad this topic popped up again. I nearly forgot about it.... Of course with what I am about to spend on my son's 4 wheeler i might have been trying to forget about addtional spending on him...lol Right now I probably need a carton of VB more than I need a boomerang....
