The Step-by-Step US Acquisition Plan

Buying the Ultra 3 requires a structured approach to ensure the item arrives safely in New Zealand. Use this blueprint to manage your order:

• Step 1: Secure a US Address. Register with comGateway to receive a tax-free US address in Oregon. This eliminates US sales tax at the point of purchase.
• Step 2: Purchase the Watch. Visit the US Apple Store or an authorized reseller. If the store does not accept New Zealand credit cards, use the proxy shopping service (also known as "BuyForMe") to have an agent purchase it on your behalf.
• Step 3: Notify the Provider. Once your watch arrives at the warehouse, you will be notified to manage your package forwarding options.
• Step 4: Consolidate and Ship. You can combine this with other popular products to save on the first-half pound shipping fee. Choose ship to New Zealand as your final destination.
