Well the Wellington Yellow Pages have companies listed under 
1. Meteorological Instruments
- Nature Discoveries ( Porirua ) ph 04 237 0237
- Scott Technical Instruments ( Hamilton ) ph 07 847 0646 
- The Met Shop ( Te Aro ) ph 04 384 7683
2. Scientific Instruments - Sales and Service
- NIWA Instrument systems ( Christchurch ) 03 323 8199

I suspect that several of the larger general scientific 
supply companies listed in 2. will also offer weather 
instruments from their overseas suppliers. 

However, if you are a dab hand with a soldering iron, you should
check out companies like Dick Smiths, as Weather Stations are
often popular kits in magazines like Electronics Australia.
  
Also, I suspect many general, marine, hobby, and electronic 
supply shops will offer items priced all the way up to 1000s 
of dollars - especially stores like Kilcaldies and Stains 
which offer German and US lines.
