I’ve just come across a review on ComputerBild (review from the end of January, but it’s been linked to from the framework newsletter just today) with a video featuring a device whose keyboard still looks precisely this way. So unless this test device is still different from the end product, I suppose that these issues are not going to be fixed?

If you are in the Netherlands, Austria or Ireland, I highly suggest you check your mail.

We’re on! I’ve placed my order. Yay! :smiley:

Hey yall, do you know how much extra cost there is to chip in France?
I guess the 20% VAT, but are there more customs fees?
Thanks!

Edit: Seems like the VAT is already included in the prices.

Are there any news about the ability to purchase aditional extension cards in germany?
I am not really happy with the choice I made, when I speced out my framework and would like to add some more.

One of their recent blog posts said they were setting up a fulfilment centre in Germany, and that the marketplace would be launched in Europe “Soon”

Yup, VAT was included and for shipping to .nl, also custom fees are pre-paid and included (so I assume also for France).

I was hoping for something more specific than “soon”, thanks though.

I confirm. I am French and I received my Framework without paying 20% VAT.
The package comes from Taiwan and it takes about 1 week.

Order as much gear as you can when you buy the laptop as the postage for anything market place later on is highway robbery at the moment.

Beware!

Well, we still are banned in Italy and Spain, 120 million inhabitants between the two states, both of them in the eurozone.

In the end, I’ve upgraded myself (it’s dead easy) my Asus Vivobook X712EA bought in October (from Asus e-shop: payed in Ireland, managed in UK, and shipped from Belgium…) and buying some parts (SSD and 16 GB RAM) from Amazon.es and some official Asus spare parts from… Sweden (Zendparts). All goods received as expected in a unique open market. All via UPS to a home in Southern Spain.

I’d like to be allowed to adquire a Framework. It is a good idea as a vision but not always one can wait.

And what are the results after 1.5 year?
Can we expect delivery option for other EU states before 16" preorder?

At the Framework Next Level Event, they announced that later in 2023 they would be opening up shipping to Belgium, Taiwan, Italy and Spain. You can watch the whole event here, with the new countries specifically at 7:48.
