I bought the colourchecker + colourchecker mini at the same time as I bought my 100mm macro lense from B+H so the postage didnt worry me.

Pity your not in Sydney - you could come and borrow mine!

I called Kayell in Qld for you and they have the ColorChecker and miniColorChecker in stock: $165 & $104 inc GST.

(if you bought both from B+H = $158 USD inc shipping = $172 AUD)

If you don't have much luck, these guys have them and are terrific on their postage prices: http://secure.netsolhost.com/664583.677720/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=CI&Category_Code=CCH

I just bought a grey card off them and got charged $1.85 for postage.
cheers, juice

A bunch of Canon stuff (including Canon & Sigma lenses). Way more gear than talent.

After a phone call, and Photo Continental do have them.
One left at $129.
That's a very attractive local price.

I'll be picking it up from PC today, and won't be ordering from Adorama after all.

I did notice on B&H's web site that they were listed as discontinued. (?)

I think I was at the front desk when phone sales people called me to find that chart, so it's you who bought the last of it. :P
