Well, ever since the start with the Das keyboards PC Case Gear seems to have been on a mission to stock as many different kinds of mechanical keyboards as they can. With Das, Leopold, Topre, Steelseries, Thermaltake, Razer, Coolermaster and Mionix on offer it seems like they might be one of the top sources for mechanical keyboards in Australia.

269 AUD = 286 USD ... thats a pretty good deal on the 87U then.
is there any taxes that need to be paid and what is shipping? I know I cant order one but was curious what a local would have to pay for this...
-
There's no additional taxes, and for me, shipping was quoted at $12.

now I'm really jealous.. wonder who their suppler is since they can sell it for $269 USD
Leopold - 360,000KRW = 325USD
EK - $345 USD

They got it directly from Topre Japan methinks.
It was announced at the Realforce facebook page that they are the new Australian distributor
-
Do they deliver to US? :/

I dont think they do... but I might be wrong. check their site before and didnt find anything that would indicate they ship internationally.

Do you ship internationally? At this time we only ship within Australia.

Yeah unfortunately they only ship within Australia, but I've been a customer of theirs for over 3 years now and get as much as I can through them. I've found that since I started buying from them their prices have become really competitive and their shipping is always good even if you pay an arm and a leg for fast shipping over standard.
-
Wish EK had prices like them lol.
-
If you ask nicely in the classifieds then perhaps an Australian GH member could buy the board for you and ship it on to you if that makes financial sense.
There are a few Australians in here so a bit of paypal funds exchange and the like and if this all makes sense to your wallet then it could be yours.
BTW:
Also check MECHkeyboards for another Australian source of Topres

You can always bug an australian geekhacker to buy it and ship it to the US, looks like it would still be cheaper then EK.
-
I can be your proxy if you need one. Shipping is kind of expensive ~45-50 USD.
Take a look at AUSPOST HERE (http://auspost.com.au/apps/international-parcel.html) for a better estimate

Just bought an 86UB from mechkeyboards, my second kb from there. PCCG are doing their damndest to beat down all the niche shops over here, we have a couple of very good water cooling shops here too and PCCG have over the past couple of years started selling that kind of thing. Also more recently branching out into quality audio gear, cans etc and undercutting smaller shops. I guess they have the buying power to do it. I have also bought tons of stuff off them over the years but always go to the smaller specialty shops like mechkeyboards first. PCCG can match them on price but they can never beat them on customer service. mechkeyboards has free shipping, PCCG is $12 for me for just about anything, I live in the same state. Interstate on big items starts getting pricey.
