Where to buy a spanish game?!?!

Hey all, I need some help on something!! I will preface this by saying that while this is about a board game, it's more about where/ how to buy a specific one, so I'm dropping it here rather than the gaming area to catch a broader audience. Mods, if you feel it's better suited for there, feel free to shoot it away.

So, my best friend is an exchange student from Spain. During the end of the last school year and the start of this year, we've managed to get her hooked on Settlers of Catan. I decided to get her a copy of the game as a gift, and thought that it would be a neat gesture to get her the Spanish edition of it. The problem I'm having right now is that I'm struggling to find a place to purchase the Spanish version online that'll ship it to the US. I've found the Spanish producer of the game (Devir), but their catalog has been down for a while for inventory, and I don't know when it'll come back, or again, if they'll actually ship it to me. I can't find anything on Ebay or Amazon, and translating every webpage that has "Los colonos de Catán" has been a slow process.

My question is whether or not anyone knows of a trustworthy place that I can order the Spanish Catan from and get it shipped to me, or if anyone has a suggestion on how I can go about getting it. I would really appreciate any help I can get from you guys!!!
 
If I was you, I'd drop by a local board game shop, and see if they can order a copy in for you.
 
Yeah, the main Catan website seems to focus primarily on the English and German versions. However, if you go to the partners page (which I can't remember where it is at the moment, I seem to be always searching for it.), it points to that Devir company as the Spanish producer. And through some creative searching, I was able to find a box labelled "Los colonos de Catán" in google images.

Canadave, thanks for that suggestion.... we have one board game location here that I'll investigate.
