I grabbed my PlastiDip can off ebay. There's a couple of AU sellers from memory, about $25 a can + shipping.

I'd be keen on a group buy if it's cheaper shipped to me than the ~$40 off ebay.

This stuff is $8.95 a can in the States :evil:

Mate, I am driving to Sydney (if you're up there) from VIC on 23rd of Chrissy, instead of you doing a round trip we might be able to organise something.

Did you buy it off ebay then tell them you'd pick it up?
