      To be fair those were preorders and I’m pretty sure everyone did get their phone eventually. It just took a really long time. At least they don’t make proprietary software like Louis Rossmann and unlike Pine64, they contribute a lot to the software development. They’ve created Phosh and still develop it, so it would be a shame if this company didn’t exist.

          They way I understand it, their FAQ says that they will not refund any Librem 5 preorders.

          We have your phone, and we will ship all the phones to those who have confirmed their mailing address, with the store credit available to the rest.

          This is what they promised in 2023 and I haven’t yet see any evidence that this didn’t happen.

          Do yourself a kindness and avoid this company like you would thieves, as there are still many cases of people spending $2.5k on a laptop, and not getting a refund as recent as 30 days ago.

          If that’s true, then it’s pretty messed up. Is that legal under US law?
