Reason why you may ask is the US site has had 3 deliverys of the Kingpin and the EU has had 1 ive been a long time customer scince 6/18/2008 as ive always found you to have great warrantys and second to none customer support.
Ive been in contact with sale at EU and they told me they may never get anymore stock of the Kingpin in words cant describe how I feel at this moment,im sorry for this rant in the videocard forum but I feel it needs to be heard.

It is a special order card, that was meant to have a limited production, not sure how they let you down personally...

we here in Australia didn't get any KINGPIN 780Ti's so who 'really' got the short end of the stick? Should have camped the EU store and purchased in the first release if you really wanted one. It was known from prior to their release that they would be a limited production card.

There is a limited supply of these cards at any one time and EVGA is going to sell them in the highest demand market which is generally the US. Get a mail forwarder if you don't like evga not stocking the EU.

How is it unfair? EVGA is an american company and their main market is probably in the US. You guys are really wanting to pay $1500 for a GPU?

It is a world wide company. As i've said numerous times in threads like this. Order from the US and use a mail forwarder. It will be just as cheap if not cheaper. Or you could always move to the US.

The price on the US and EU sites are the same when you calculate it so there is no advantage from buying it from the US. meaning we don't pay more for the GPU. other than shipping and possibly tax if the border catches. but I have to agree. It is a pretty crappy move to have europe only have one delivery. to me it comes over as "oh right europe well here are some now piss off hur hur merica fire the 290X BBQ". and since amazon US,newegg and EVGA don't ship to europe we have to start finding companies or people who ship stuff from the US meaning like triple shipping costs or whatever.

As I've explained many times in the past prices for items are in common currency for the country in which they are sold.

I know. I was confirming this fact. ashameformethatitsnot799usd=799euroelseicouldtakeadvantageofit I personally get the feeling that even the build to order is going to be skipped for europe.

Last time I checked you guys paid 1Euro for every 1 USD unless they changed this from people complaining.

Checked the website. weird it seems the prices on the EU site increased? I remember checking both websites in january when I was back home and the difference was very little. generally I have noticed that PC parts tend to be quite equal in terms of US and EU. I checked for a 3960X . 1000 euros. 1300ish bucks on amazon when I checked which comes out to the same amount pretty much

Become a US citizen if you want the darn card right away or get someone to send it to you. Go on EBAY and pay a ton for it + international shipping. Not EVGA's faults your duties are probably sky high and they aren't going to ship a FEW to those that will spend a ridiculous amount. It's not worth the COST to EVGA to send only a FEW. Again, become a US citizen or buy from a company that caters more to your region. EVGA is a 3rd party supplier for the US markets just like some of those european named companies who don't sell here in the states. Your argument is as good as dead.

I don't understand? Life is not fair... I guess with all those subsidies and entitlements in the EU it's hard to live in the real world huh? If you had a company and had an opportunity to make more money in your country you would ship the majority of your product there...

I didn't know K|NGP|N Classified it's Limited Edition too. Maybe is better because I didn't know. I explain before... For such cards you must be ready before card show up... You know how many people want. That mean, no waiting reviews, no reading weeks on experience of other customers, only first impression and immediately attack and grab model... I remember, we wait card 2-3 months... EVGA Europe had KP Classified only few days after USA, less than week...for excellent and fair price more than ever. 2 weeks cards was available 24/7... maybe even 3 weeks. Last few days only Europe had cards...I even miss because some complication to get card earlier but they didn't sell and after 5 days cards was ordered. In mean time EVGA Europe non stop had card. I know what you feel, I would be completely crushed... I think they will get little more cards... Explain situation and ask to send you message if they get... You must look, before few days guy sell here for 850$ KP Classified and EK waterblock together... You could save lot of money and you know card is 100% working... No bad surprise. On E-Bay show sometimes too, but I recommend careful looking who sell and where you buy. Read on overclock.net. Sometimes customers even sell sealed, they order two and sell one... This is not reference model and no time for waiting and reading forums and looking pictures, they choose chips and can't make 100.000. If you are persistent you will find...I'm sure. I couldn't pay 1500$, I couldn't pay even 900e... About 800e would be last price. They could sell all cards in Europe for 900e, not so fast and with many disappointed people and lot bad comments but they could sell and close to 1000e. They choose to sell for 765e. Fast and fair and only jealous and not real enthusiast can complain about price. This is not model where you can say... Oh I saw posts, reviews, and experience, card is monster I will buy one when I save money...

Vlada, not to be rude but I don't understand anything you say in the US forums. Its really hard reading and making out your comments. Don't take this personal at all but you're better off with EU affairs in the EU forums since you're from there and can speak your native language there and relate to EU issues or what not. Again, its not a personal attack but it throws me off when reading to assist or understand others.
