It’s 17/01/2018, but the FP online shop is still showing the “Back in stock on January 17, 2018” message. At what time is the online shop supposed to open?
I’m still a proud FP1 user, and even though my dear old FP1 is still working great, I’d really like to try the new FP2… I thought the latest batch would be available on January 17th, as announced, it’s 00:33 CET and no change on the online shop.
After missing the opportunity of buying a refurbished FP2, and having saved 529€ for the new one, I really don’t want to miss this one.
Please, the next time you write a date for the following launch, be more specific and also include the time. Thank you!
Oh well… luckily I have to get up early… in a few hours
Right now (January 17th 2018, 10:45 am) the website is down for maintenance.
My guess would be, that @urs_lesseless was absolutely correct with his guessing.
As soon as the website is online again, the phone should be available.
Well it was already theoretically possible to order but the site had so much traffic that it didn’t load anymore. Guess that is the reason for the currently shown Maintenance page.
I wish Fairphone would just take orders no matter if the device is currently available even if I had to wait half a year for delivery it would still be better than now.
The way it is handled now ordering a Fairphone2 is mere gambling.
For months I’ve been waiting for the oppurtunity to order a Fairphone2. Today was the day… I tried to order time after time, but couldn’t get my order through (Gateway Timeout). And now the shop is “down for scheduled maintainance” (duh!)
I don’t have a smartphone yet and I really wanted a Fairphone, because of the philosophy it is based on. But I absolutely need a smartphone for my voluntary job, which starts early February.
This way you almost force me to buy a commercial phone instead of the fair and honest one I wanted…
That site also lists online-shops and some ship Europe-wide.
You don’t really depend on buying at Fairphone itself (as long as the FP2 is in stock for the other shops of course…). I ordered at Vireo in December and got it one week later.
Strange, whenever I click on “Add to Cart” I get the error "The product “Fairphone 2” cannot be added to cart."
Have already tried FF and IE without any luck.
Yes, that helped.
