Unfortunatly, unless the person states that they can sell them and ship them to or within the US or Canada your SOL.

Internationally, you typically need a trans-shipper, (some one who can clear the fish at the airport and then ship them to you, or deliver them to you.) This process alone is quite costly, and imo unless its a once in a life time find, and the fish poops money, it isn't worth it for the typical hobbiest. However, buying fish online from a seller who is within your country is a possibility, but shipping may still be costly. The LFS is really your best bet. If you see something you like online that they don't have, you can always ask if they would order that type of fish for you.
