As i was looking around for potential green backlit mx green buys i stumbled upon this beauty, since the "CM storm trigger green backlit mx green" got cancelled this seems to be the only one of its kind.
 
I've only found 3 websites selling this product where NCIX is up for pre-order and the other 2 list as In Stock but theres no add to cart button.

I live in sweden so these resellers are not ideal since theyre all located in the US and according to NCIX shipping calculator it would cost me 80 dollars for the shipping alone. now, if i want something bad enough that 80 dollar shipping wont bother me since ive been looking for about a year for something like this. 
 
Since its pre-order on NCIX and there doesnt seem to be any info on it even on Duckychannel (only "Switches: Cherry MX Black, Blue, Brown, and Red" are listed on the DK9008S3) so im assuming its not been released yet.
 
Now im wondering, what should i do if i want this keyboard?
should i bite the bullet and pay the 80 dollar shipping and pre-order from ncix?
should i wait until i can find a reseller in europe?
 
and does anyone have any information at all that could be of benefit?
thank you.

There's currently 2 in all of US according to mechanicalkeyboards.com, on their Facebook they'll have a random draw for the 2 people to be legible to purchase it.

I think it's totally worth it. @Samdb will probably agree :)

 

Considering import taxes and shipping fees, it's priced higher than most other mechanical keyboards but my god is it worth it.

The real kicker is that there is a really high chance that no other place will have these again :(

You have the option to light the sides of the snake with different colours with a function on the keyboard.

I spoke with someone from Cooler Master earlier this month and they claimed they'd be releasing a QuickFire TK with green switches and green backlighting on Septemeber 1st. Is this in the same boat that was cancelled for the Storm Trigger?
