I saw that this card was recently available for sale directly on EVGA, but I'm wondering when it might be offered on third party sites? I'm likely to purchase off somewhere like Newegg.ca as purchasing directly from EVGA means I have to pay conversion + shipping + duties/tax which is far more expensive.
 
I have yet to see any listing on any local stores or Newegg US or Canada

    Believe it or not after conversion + shipping + duties/tax should still be cheaper buying directly form EVGA than any retail store in Canada!

    I did the math, unfortunately you appear to be incorrect.
     
    For example, the 2080 XC Ultra is 849 USD, converted that's 1098.30, and with tax/duties that's an extra $229. So, before shipping, it's $1329. With an extra $50 US for shipping ($64) CAD, that's roughly $1390 for the card and shipping directly from EVGA.
     
    Or you can buy it directly from Amazon and pay $1309, so we're looking at roughly an $80 difference.

    Well at Canada Computers the card cost $1149 so that's about the same as ordering from EVGA shipping included!

    Canada Computers and Amazon sell it for the same price, you're forgetting about tax :)

    Of course you need to pay taxes still comes about the same, my original post was that you have better chance and faster ordering directly from EVGA since wont be anything more expensive, sometimes even cheaper, that's the whole point i tried to make!
     
    Keep in mind Duty/Taxes are exact same value as paying taxes locally.
