Next do0rr (well across the Australian continent) to you is the Perth Mint, which offers insured certificates for bullion that it holds in your name. the Perth Mint has been around for many years..longer than ETFs and EverBank. I'm not familiar with the tax-cosequences for those in NZ trading commodity ETFs in the overseas markets, or the necessity to register holdings at the NZ exchange.
Still another option is to look at the EverBank site, for gold and or physical metal deposit investments that are also insured vs. loss of capital. These are metal-based CD's.

Buy SPDR gold shares its an ETF with low fees of 1.5 - 2.5% unlike 10-15 % for purchase of phyical gold .
A better way to play the expected spike is to invest in silver. SLV silver shares ETF
that can get you even better return than gold.
Or you could buy shares of beaten down stocks of gold mining stocks like SA.

One of my favorite indicators that seems to move in tandem with the actual price of gold is the PHLX Gold/Silver Sector Index (XAU). It trades at a fraction of the price of gold and generally enjoys the same movement.
I also keep tabs on the gold mining and exploration companies. A couple of my favorites are Eldorado Gold (EGO) and Barrick Gold Corp. (ABX).
