@loke No, it's because Valve.

Valve likes to sell Direct-to-consumer, the only exception is via Komodo in Asia.

They themselves only ship to NA, EU and a select few other countries (Like the UK).

Due to this no Valve products have ever been available in Norway. I always wanted a Steam controller, but couldn't get one, couldn't get a Steam Link when they went on sale either. And it's also impossible to buy a Valve Index in Norway.
