Default Pressure bleeder - supplier in Australia?

Do any Aussie listers know of a supplier of a pressure brake bleeder, like this one on fleabay? Supercrappy, Autopro, dont stock them or anything like it.

Bleeder

Cheers

Hmm, seems the seller wont ship overseas anyway, somethign about problems with Customs... hard to believe as I work for the company that managers Oz Customs IT, and I have the whole tariff listing available - these things are duty free...

Hello from Gippsland, a bit further down under!
Purchased same Motive unit from Pelican online, it arrived in about 5 days, no problem.
If you want to pay the postage you can have a lend.

I could suggest what some enterprising person showed on Pelican's forum. He pressurized the reservoir vent line to 15-20 psi with an air compressor. Same effect, and you don't have to remember to clamp the vent line if you use an external pressure tank or find a place to store the tank if it's like my garage.

....or gravity bleed. You Aussies must have a lot of gravity down there.

Michael,thanks for the offer, I'll check out Pelican again, but I do like to have my own gear to fill the garage up
