I found the guys at AMD very helpful and especially very understanding recently when I had to bail out of a Avengers (unfortunately) so no ill feeling against them - glad we have them.

I just find the industry interesting that in the US, Stern releases a price increase in say the RRP but with the various dealers pinsiders talk of some bargains to be had at pin release time, so it is a shame we don't get to experience that competitive pricing. I do find it interesting that AMD can wear a price increase showing there is some meat on the bone and enjoying the good exchange rate but that said I am glad we have a dealer in Aus that can aid in providing the good service, spare parts and new machines locally.
