Available to us, yes, likely to get to us, no. Americans are more numerous and apparently more wealthy than us and hence snap up some of the more desirable items - hence the decade-long waiting times for things like purple monsters and other SPS that have reached iconic status. I keep meaning to get my name on those lists - by the time my frag is ready, I'll likely be retired and ready to devote to them the attention they need.
