  For Europe: http://store.wdc.com/store/wdeu/en_IE/DisplayAccesoryProductDetailsPage/ThemeID.22586100/productID.335498900/WD_314GB_PiDrive http://store.wdc.com/store/wdeu/en_IE/DisplayAccesoryProduct... (It's 34,28 € with free EU-wide shipping.)

    It's not EU-wide shipping. They're selling into a strange subset of the EU. Basically all the large countries are missing: France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK are not listed in the menu of the shipping destinations (UK is listed in the product page but not in that menu). Maybe they don't have enough drives for everybody?

      They seem to have separate stores for the large countries, you can see the offer by changing the locale (i.e. en_IE to de_DE) in the URL, but I can't add it to the cart and the search doesn't find it either. Their webshop is rather terrible :(

        Maybe they are deliberately not selling this drive in those markets for now. My hypothesis is that they don't have enough units yet but did that already happen before?
