Internation Segway order problem

[prapa]

Hi all,
I write you this message because i have a problem with my Segway order and i'm looking for someone that can help me.
I live in Rome, Italy, and i have ordered a segway to Amazon via USA address (a mail forwarding service).
Now, as you know, before the shipment every customer must do a training in some of the training stages that the Segway company will organize.
I would like to avoid a trip in United States just to make this training, and i'm looking for someone that can go for me to one of these scheduled training session. I read the terms of order in the amazon segway pages, and i think this is possible.
If someone can help me, please let me know.
Thanks
Paolo

I know you mean that Segway doesn't ship outside the USA, not Amazon.

Paolo, do you have any friends/family in the US who you can trust? You should call Segway on this and see if they will accomodate you.

Yes, i know.
In fact the shipment address of my Segway is in USA. Its a mail forwarding service company where i have a Mbox. and when the HT will arrive i can ship to Italy.

From Aamzon:
How will I learn how to use the Segway HT?
The Segway company will provide training for each purchaser or the person (over 16 years of age) to whom the purchaser has the Segway HT shipped. The Segway HT is engineered to be easy to ride, but, in order to ensure that you are prepared for safe and enjoyable riding, a Segway specialist will show you how to properly operate the Segway HT. You may bring one friend to the training session for no extra charge. Your friend must be 16 years or older to receive the training from the Segway company. Between February 1 and July 31, 2003, the Segway company will host training at least once each week in Bedford, New Hampshire, and Los Angeles, and at least once each month in Seattle, San Francisco, Phoenix, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Detroit, Atlanta, New York City, Baltimore, and Orlando, Florida. The Segway company will e-mail you a training schedule approximately 30 days before your Segway HT is scheduled to ship. You will be responsible for scheduling your attendance as well as for arranging transportation to and from your training session. If you don't attend scheduled training within 30 days after you receive the first notice, the Segway company will send you a second e-mail notice and you must attend by the date you are required to complete your purchase. (See "When will I get my Segway HT after I place my deposit?" above). Note: You must complete a Segway HT training session before Segway will ship your Segway HT.
