I got one from CDCO in the US. $45 plus $15 for an MT3 shank. Reasonable postage via USPS. Frank from CDCO is a good guy to deal with and will do his best to fit whatever you buy into standard USPS package sizes.
I get most of my tools for lathe or mill from CDCO.
There's this eBay seller. A bit dearer but also a reliable supplier.

Thanks for that $78 plus $22 shipping is $100 = £61, about the same as I can buy it here... they all look to be the same Chinese made ones anyway...

You're lucky to be able to get one locally for that price.
Best I could do here was about $US125 and it's (probably) the same one from China.
$US60 plus $US41 postage from the US was much better and I got to fill up the package with all sorts of other goodies that, like the boring head, have still to be used.
