Has anyone bought a resonator from The 1959 Guitar Company out of New Zealand?

I have never heard of them until now. I looked them up and they are yet another importer that takes their designs to China to be manufactured, similar to U.S. companies like Saga Music (Regal resos), Gretsch, Recording King, Gold Tone, Republic Guitars, Royall Resonators etc.
If the guitar choices are similar to many offered by the above listed companies, then it would seem unlikely that there would be any kind of market for American buyers. No idea what it costs to ship a guitar from New Zealand - but I'm thinking it must be plenty. And if one were to decide to return it for some reason, you'd likely have to pay the return shipping to NZ.

I dunno what the shipping would run .
But remember that the prices are in NZ dollars
$1 NZ = $0.63 US . Plus subtract 15% for theNZ GMT .
