Valve appears to have determined that for whatever reason it's not worth selling hardware in Australia. No Index here either.

  Hence my conspiracy theory! My wild assumption is that they don't want to deal with our consumer law, and/or they want to punish us for the ACCC forcing them to respect it wrt. Steam.

    Well there it is. Definitely wasn't available from EB within the first 12 months of launch though. I know because I wanted one.

      Took two whole years to arrive according to PCGAMER, appearing online for preorder in June last year

  From the document provided in TFA there seems to be a probable explanation (see pg. 55): Australia — A place that’s either very near or is New Zealand where more than half of Valve’s employees were born.

    That's the funniest part too, they don't sell their hardware in New Zealand either.
