    For sale: OpenPandora (rebirth), 512M, boxed, excellent condition.

    I see this thread went in an (un?)expected direction. A rebirth new from ED is 440 EUR/370 GBP; the 1GHz is 539 EUR/453 GBP.  I don't understand how (new) they can be sold at more than a 30% discount, so I don't know whether the gbax.com site is a reliable data source. Does Craig actually have...

    For sale: OpenPandora (rebirth), 512M, boxed, excellent condition.

    I'm surprised at the lack of interest in traded Pandoras on the board. What's the price point to get mine into the hands of someone who'll use and enjoy it?  Make an offer (excl postage costs.)

    For sale: OpenPandora (rebirth), 512M, boxed, excellent condition.

    According to http://www.parcelforce.com/send-worldwide/non-account-services/economy-services/prices, it's £25 (zone 9-EU, 1kg). So 28 EUR. Drop me an email on j (at) jkt (dot) im to discuss if you want; I don't check the boards too often and it's not notifying me of replies.

    For sale: OpenPandora (rebirth), 512M, boxed, excellent condition.

    Seany - that comes to £250 *excluding* postage. Too big a hit, sorry. Bump. As £320 is too much it seems, even for a mint condition rebirth, offers for £290 (335 EUR) + postage now accepted.

    For sale: OpenPandora (rebirth), 512M, boxed, excellent condition.

    Taken delivery in April 2012, used for about 10 hours since (to complete Monkey Island 2). I ordered in 2010 and lots has changed then, including the amount of free time to potter around and play games, hence the sale :) Excellent condition, boxed, carry case, stylus, 512M, 600Mhz, etc; will...

    And for the times we can't be bothered to explain exactly, we have Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounding#Tie-breaking :)

    2 Months..... umm, weeks to go (2012-02-06)

    That begs the question: how are pre-orders being allocated for shipment, and how have they been so far? It's been made to sound, over many months, like they're being shipped in order (excepting 'premium' upgrades), but that - by definition - means they need to have a list (or be able to easily...

    How free is the OpenPandora?

    Most, if not all, of your questions are answered in the FAQ: http://pandorawiki.org/FAQ

    They will have a list of who's in what queue, and what position they're in. Combining that with the unit/queue allocation ratio, it would be easy to let people know how many units need to be completed before they get theirs. That information along with projected unit-completion rates (and...

    ED, If so, ping me a message with your bank details and I'll transfer the difference. I trust that my order was originally placed with Craig won't affect things on that front... Note: I don't want this to bump me up the queue, I want it to *maintain* my place in the queue, on the...

    Ok, my bad on that - the thread is moving so fast I missed the response :) So 120 GBP difference? (http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=457+EUR+in+GBP)

    2 Months..... umm, weeks to go (2012-02-06)

    Keep to the original spec, that's fine with me. But don't punish customers because you screwed up. And still, three times, I've asked for the cost difference between what I paid (250 GBP) and what it's now really costing, but nothing's been forthcoming. You have a customer here (me) who is...

    2 Months..... umm, weeks to go (2012-02-06)

    How long from when they announced it *for sale* and it getting into the hands of the consumer (if you're comparing like-for-like)? Maybe the 3DS does have bad battery life, but the difference between the two devices is that I have a 3DS - like, in my hands, able to play it - while the Pandora...

    So the original contract - for a new device - is now a contract for a second hand unit (or 'new' unit with second hand parts), solely because the old parts are no longer manufactured? Interesting logic. It wouldn't stand up in court.

    If it's a *per-person* cost of 50k, I'd get insurance for that possibility. But it's not: you've yourself said it would be a 27.50 euro increase per-board. I'd swallow that if it provided a more stable company, better PR, and longevity (oh, and we do have two cars, as do a lot of households)...

    2 Months..... umm, weeks to go (2012-02-06)

    An incorrect assumption. I just ask pointed questions, I'm not angry in the slightest. I'm am, however, laying out the POV from a customer, and am backing it up with sound reasoning and logic. I think this is an excellent project which is why I have waited in the wings for this long. What's...

    Lack of due-diligence, then. For something that's critical, yes, that's what I do. I want to have use of a car, so I either have two, or I have insurance to cover the costs incurred when (not it - when), the first fails (I went for the former). I *need* a computer to do my work. It is...

    2 Months..... umm, weeks to go (2012-02-06)

    Bad example. Worth noting at this point that when all the HDD prices were in flux after the Thailand flooding issues that the price of Apple products remained constant, while (seemingly) all other manufacturers increased prices. Indeed, on dabs.com, prices of drives were changing by the...
