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

89 percent of them are sold as of this morning, the deal ends the 30th of may looks like they will sell out before then. if you want one you should jump on it.

They have 20% off on the official site with the promocode: REACTOR

Havnt bought one myself (still saving up the money) but checked if the code worked (it did) so hopefully someone can save some money on this... Think its valid untill the 5th of june...

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

Have you reached out to CS yet?

Dennis_Petersen

fast response from customer service. 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

I had mine nearly a year now a great machine. you tend to forget how you originally logged into chess.com I travel with mine alot always keep it locked when transporting it in original packaging. don't forget to unlock though as I did last night not a good sound caught it quick though.

LOL horrible sound! I haven't traveled with mine but when you lock it do you have to use the screw it comes with when shipping?

Dennis_Petersen

Yes follow the instructions in the app for locking it and replace the locking screw once the holes align. Never travel with out the screw replaced in the bottom. Performing the locking prceedure only aligns the holes the screw is what really locks the mechanics inside

i don't know about it but here is a luxury chess set cheaper than amazon/ebay

I have a luxury set as well similar to this. It is a nice show piece but I never play OTB on it.

 

Square off chess set is for players that want to play online chess against an opponent on chess.com or square off but want to play on a chess board instead of a screen. That is why it cost extra. I love it. worth every single penny, and if it ever fails i will gladly purchase it again.
