I'm in the same boat as you and not found a solution to the problem. Some companies I dealt with years back would courier it to your door, but they have since stopped that practice. A few stores said they would custom order me things, but then said I had to pick it up that day(week day) and had to pay full price in advance. I do have one company that told me a few months back that they would bring in a more difficult to care for fish and hold it for a month for me, but I am waiting until after Christmas to order it and see if they will hold true to their word regarding that. Hopefully a company out there will be more friendly to the out-of-towners, but thus far, I haven't had much luck.
