K70 Brown Aussie Release

Wysoseriouss

Hey, I can't find anything at my usual computer stores regarding the release of the K70s in Brown switches here in Australia. Has anyone on here heard anything or have any thoughts on where I could go to find out?

 

I'm pretty sure I can order them to be shipped in off Amazon or even NCIX, but I would rather not pay the extra for shipping and then wait 2 weeks or however long it will take to get here from the states only to find that it's been released here. So unless there really is no word at all on a release date here I would rather not go that way.

PC Case Gear are usually one of the first companies to get the newest tech in but I haven't managed to find the K70's with Brown switches. I would ask the store you usually buy from if they will be getting them in stock anytime soon and just cross your fingers.

Case = Bitfenix Prodigy, Motherboard = P8Z77 - I Deluxe, CPU = 3570k @ 4.2GHz, RAM = 2x 8GB G-Skill Ripjaws, GPU = Sapphire 7950 Boost Edition, Storage = 256GB Samsung 840 Pro.

Amazon's expedited shipping is actually pretty reasonable even for international. Australia also has some weird import duty laws, so you probably won't have to worry about import duties - amazon will charge it initially then refund it if it doesn't get used at Australian customs. The extra you pay for expedited shipping makes it arrive at the guaranteed time. They're pretty good with free shipping too, for that matter.

Yeah, I'm thinking that since there is absolutely no word at all that I can find regarding if/when they will be released here, Amazon is looking like a very attractive option, plus it seems I might be able to get one relatively cheap through them, a K70 at Umart, my usual store here in Brisbane, is $165, whereas the Brown switch K70 on Amazon is $131 with shipping. I might just have to go with that option.
