WTB: Genuine battery for 14-inch widescreen R61/T61/R400/T400

[bakery2k]

I am looking for a genuine, working battery for a 14-inch widescreen R61/T61/R400/T400.

I would be happy with either a 4, 6 or 9 cell battery. I believe newer examples are labelled 33, 33+ or 33++ respectively.

Unfortunately, it seems that new restrictions have made it almost impossible to ship loose laptop batteries internationally.

Does anybody have one of these batteries available? If so, are you either located in this part of the world (Australia / New Zealand), or otherwise able to work around any shipping restrictions?

Thanks

I have a 33+ available but the shipping cost from Toronto to New Zealand will be too expensive to justify.

Actually, looking at the Canada Post website, I think the price to ship a battery-sized "Small Packet" (albeit by "International Surface" mail) is very reasonable - less than 15 CAD. The problem is that Canada Post will not carry a laptop battery internationally:

Lithium batteries alone [...] are not acceptable for transport in the air or for any destination outside of Canada.

I have found most (all?) other shipping companies impose similar restrictions.
