Not sure what country you are in, but the only two sites I know of for Duckys in the US are tigerimports.net and tankguys.com. It looks like tankguys doesn't even carry the Shine 2s. Sadly the blues with red led are sold out on tigerimports at the moment, though the main page says they are expecting a shipment soon. The post was dated the 17th but I haven't seen any restocked for a while, I'm waiting on blues with a green or blue backlight myself. Best of luck if you do stumble across some and please share if you do. I'll post another reply if I see some come into stock at tiger.

I do live in the US, thanks for the info. Yeah I was looking at tigerimports.net and the keyboard I wanted was out of stock :(.

Its easy for me, apparently Australians don't want mechanical keyboards or something because I can find Ducky's all over the place here. :D

The only problem is their price tag :(

The first step to insanity is believing in your sanity.

All about demand and supply I assume. Since no one wants one they probably didn't make many and have to sell them for more but you're one of the very few people who want one in Australia.

Not to necro a post, but I did end up buying not only my board but one for the wife. Typing this on my brand new Blue led/Blue switch Ducky and I couldn't be happier. It feels like heaven under my fingers and the back-lighting looks amazing. This thing is super solid, if I ever need to stop an intruder, I'll just whack him with my Ducky.

Hope everyone who wanted one managed to pick one up, though I believe there is still available stock over at Tiger. Now I just have to snag a set of purple keys and surprise the wife with them the next time I screw up/buy something expensive without telling her ;)

Just a tiny side-note, they appear to be including the wire puller now instead of the ring style puller. Wanted to mention that since I remembered a few people had said the wire style is less likely to damage the led on accident.
