This shop is very busy or the people are not working during office hours not answering phone during normal office hours. Not responding to email submitted via website. Having said that, my last order for EV3 $399 got shipped in 2 days.
BigW has sold out (no longer in stock) or you could price match (need to go through big loop of misleading price matching policies, speak to a supervisor and insist that "Australian Cheapest" need to be honored as claimed.)
Below are the specs cut and paste from the website.
