@randomq:
I have found eBay will ship some things here that Amazon won't...like cheap CR-2032 button batteries.
I have noticed the "currently unavailable" on Amazon for some items instead of "can't ship to HI" and wondered if it was just a ploy, instead of just flat-out saying they wouldn't ship here. Even tho one of the 50 states yadayada.
Example:
My elderly folks on the mainland recently bought a nifty little rechargeable battery-powered 4-wheel scooter with baskets...about $450; not cheap-cheap, but pretty much what they needed at a good price for them. Got it in 2 days where they live. I looked up the listing just to check out the specs and such..."Currently Unavailable" here.
Riiiiiight.
