Hi!
Does anyone know when pre-orders for the new Blades open in Australia?
It has been over a week since pre-orders were made available in several other countries, but the Blade pages on the Australian website, including the store, still say 'Notify Me' or only mention last year's models.
I'd really appreciate it if anyone had any official information on this.
Thanks in advance!

I have been watching this space as well. Be nice if there was a phone number to call them. I contacted support but got the "should be up soon" response. The US already had their pre-order window.
I get the feeling the Aussie website doesn't get a lot of attention. Most of its content appears to be copy-pasted from the main US site, so your guess is as good as mine when it comes to local release timing. Hopefully we get enough notice to have a reasonable chance to pre-order.
I find it interesting that the link in the AU site says "Blade 15 2022" but when you click on it, it takes you to the 2021 version. Is it an error on their end they are unaware of or as you said, a copy from the US site. Very frustrating as I think they may just drop Pre Orders at a random time. All this PR buzz about getting a mouse if you get in early, then nothing after the date.
Don't know if you're still watching this, but the new models are now listed on the Aussie website. Only 3 of the 6 Blade 17 models are currently available (and none of the 15's) at the moment, though. Prices are even more eye watering than expected, but oh well.
I did catch that this morning, all sold out. I noticed that Scorptec listed it at the same time. In called them, they said although they have it listed as "Sold Out" they have not received stock yet and are not taking pre orders. Seems to me that Razer has listed the 15 & 17 on the site but as listing them as sold out until they are ready to sell in AUS. I guess watch this space but no dates yet. So much for "Notify Me" on their page.
Yeah, no notifications. I only noticed because I randomly checked before I went to bed last night. No 15s available yet, but the QHD/3060ti, QHD/3070ti and 4K/3080ti 17s are available. I was able to buy the one I wanted and the order is confirmed, so that's good. No word on when it'll get here, but I'd guess at least a month or so given the state of international shipping these days (I'm a realist).
In case you were wondering, my Blade 17 arrived this morning, so some of them are definitely available. Only the cheapest 15 and 3 of the 17 models available right now, though. Very pleased with how it all went.
That's good news, glad you got it. It came quick as well.
I am hoping to get a higher range 15 but not available yet. Not sure on when they are going to come in stock. Seems odd to only have the cheapest versions.
I assume you did the "notify me" option? Did you get the mouse with the pre-order or did it go though as just purchase?
I have been checking daily, I guess I'll keep at it an hope they become available soon.

I did 'Notify Me', but I never received any notifications. I only noticed they were available because I randomly checked last Tuesday night. No mouse, that appears to have been US only (I guess the Aus page was mostly a copy-paste from the US site, so it showed their pre-order deal). Not that I care, I just bought a Deathadder a couple of months ago. Yeah, hope the other models come through soon. Mine is fantastic so far.
