They are OOS. Check stores around Oct it seems.

I just purchased 12x 1850 RPM version from Linke Computer. Literally the only place I could find with any of them so I feel lucky. It says they're still in stock, too (:
Can't wait to put these babies on my rads!
I'm also getting a top-notch HTPC (desktop) case, so hopefully it'll come with some decent case fans.
If there's not enough or they're ****, then I'll probably need more than just two for my Rad.
Are these fans also the best case fans, or are their better options for one's case?
Thanks for offering your opinion...
I'll keep the in mind for case fans too then, should the need arise.
They are not out of production or going to be anytime soon.
I was in contact with Scythe USA and was told there are production issues and they can't keep up with backlog and current demand at Nidec (who makes the fans).
Was told late October at the earliest for more stock to be seen in the USA. The shortage is worldwide, not just in the USA.
I bought 6 of them from Koolertek 2 weeks ago (1450rpm version) and they are now out of stock as well.
I managed to find four for sale and love them. They are nearly silent, and they REALLY push air. That's coming from someone who sleeps with his PC two feet from my head. I spent a lot on cheaper fans with controllers and bling, and will only buy these fans from now on.
Linke won't ship to Canada???
Weird. The D14 I got from them was shipped from a warehouse in Vancouver. It came via Canada post to the USPS. I wonder if it's just fans, or if there is some tariff angle.
After being linked here and on OCN, they are now out of stock :D
I've got reject from Linke shop with words that next shipment will happen on november, also these fans are out of stock in Anartik.
So it seems fans are unavailable worldwide until november now :(
Yeah the dodgy buggers emailed me earlier today & basically said...
"Woops sorry, we actually don't have these in-stock, despite us indicating as such when you ordered/paid!"
They did promptly refund me at least, but they've ignored subsequent email queries.
If you want decent case fans, I've been told slipstreams are actually better for that anyway.

If you're wanting rads fans with the best noise/cfm ratio, the GT's are still it though :(
If you are in Europe:
Cool and Quiet 73 in stock
Thanks Biffa, but you guys are clearly in the UK, sux to be me.
Australia.... :(
*edit*
I think my order with cool & quiet may have successfully completed, time will tell.
Much more of a rip-off than linke, oh well, beggars can't be choosers!
these seem to always run out of stock so I just opted for the 1450 rpm ones and man do they keep my system cool and silent
Doh, I just realised there's a whole bunch of local Aussie retailers that might have them!
I'm used to buying overseas all the time, & it's 230am so my judgement's impaired :)
*edit*
Yup, at least a dozen in my 5-min of searching, & they're bound to be cheaper.
*Forehead slap* Granted they may all be out-of-stock...
Oh well already ordered from Cool&Quiet, unlikely to be more than a $15 AUD loss.
They may yet turn-around & say I can't order from them, & refund me anyway.
Anyone heard from Cool&Quiet apart from the order placed e-mail? I ordered 6 of these on Sunday and was expecting them to be shipped by now, but not heard anything?
Dropped them a mail via their contact page earlier today about 3pm no response yet. Never used these guys before but they were the only place showing the 1850 GT's in stock (at a premium price) normally stick to Specialtech, Scan, etc... hmmm.... :shrug:
that is a bit on the slow side, maybe they have a back-log.
