I was really excited about this board but it looks like they don't ship to Australia. Damn!

Does "looks like" mean they actually don't?

Pay the shipping if that's the case they are worth it

No "Australia" in their pull-down list for Shipping. No option to pay for shipping either.

OK. I got a response:

"Unfortunately, we do not ship to Australia.
Currently, we are only shipping to the US and EU markets."
 
I did check out Amazon as suggested. They do ship to Australia (for this item, at least). Only thing is, I can't score the $100 off as offered on the Square-Off site. Mmm... may need to recalculate my financial priorities.

An update:

Although the Amazon site clearly says that this item is: "Eligible for Shipping to Australia" when I went through the checkout process, I got the message there was a problem with this item and: "We are currently unable to ship items sold by third parties to Australian shipping addresses."

So, a frustrating way to waste an hour or two on a sunny afternoon. Hopefully the board sells like hot-cakes and someone takes up the distribution for Australia.

There is a limited edition Square off Grand Kingdom being offered in a black carbon, with Black Carbon and what looks like white squares. I got an email from them recently for those who might be interested

by reloading software do you mean you deleted the app and redownloaded it?

Have you reached out to CS yet?

I had recently changed my chess.com password and forgot to change it on the square off app. all is good for logging into chess.com on the square off app click the menu in the top left(three bars upper left corner) click on your picture then click on the chess.com logo. sign in with your chess.com user log in and password go back to the main menu select play with friends, you can either click on the orange icon in the lower right or use search to find a specific player
