Performance PC's will have them shortly.

Australia wants HC stocks too.... 
Seems we are missing out yet again.

I love EVGA products but its a pain to get them here. 
 
I really wish EVGA would ship to Australia.  We have next to no chance of getting products at cost price.
Even with the Aussie dollar worth more then US will still pay another $200 plus over US price...
Standard EVGA 680 on EVGA = $499
same card in Australia = $699

Have you emailed the people like I stated previously? they are aware of the issue but more people need to complain *officially*

$699 is cheap, that's pccasegear I imagine, they generally don't stock the hydro cards in fact the only shop in AU right now with 1x unit in stock of the 580 hydro 1.5gb (standard) is jprcstore and they want $1032.00AUD for it or 1,068.17 USD, that's a bit more than $200 over the price in the USA ;)

 
Yeah that was PCCG but they are sold out and I want a HC Classy anyways.  An extra $200 for the same card isnt cheap IMO.  Last time I purchased a EVGA 580 HC from the USA and had it sent here for $80.
Im more worried about getting stock, as it seems its very limited with the 680's.
I really want a 680 HC Classy when they are out but I think Im going to have a better chance of winning lotto.
I dont have an American Express card.
 
As for emailing people, I wasnt sure who to email?

I was emailing Joe one of the directors, there's a page somewhere with a list of them. He did try and organise some cheaper cards for me and the Asia/Pacific person he put me onto did try and go out of her way to help but the distributor in AU wasn't really playing nice hence no 2x HC cards ;) lead time was still around 6 weeks, when I could have simply purchased them off newegg and saved $400 overall.
 
You don't need an amex card to sign up but I think there's a $40 yearly subscription fee, one word of caution though is taxes might be applied by EVGA given the card is technically being sold to a postal address within the USA, not sure how the tax system works there though.
