Something like that. 1/3 of working force not returning to their positions, new people need to be trained....

Not sure if it's the same in China but in Taiwan bonuses are given right before Chinese New Year so people usually wait for that period before quitting their jobs.

And I'm sure it didn't end-up in my spam folder, I white listed all addresses coming from the pine64.org domain.

After the fail of the first pre-order registration (I got removed because I registered too early), I re-registered a 2nd time and received the confirmation on August 16th. Then nothing.

I personally feel this pre-order system was poorly managed honestly.

Well, now I lost any hope of ever getting my coupon code.
Very disappointed how things went.
I was very excited by the pinebook pro a year ago, but I completely lost this feeling  Sad

It certainly had its issues, but you shouldn't need a coupon to place an order now. Both ISO and ANSI versions are freely available in the store. I just added one to a cart and got all the way to checkout.

Sure I can order without the coupon, that's what I just did actually because I really need a backup laptop.

Just disappointed for the eMMC upgrade because now I'd need to pay an extra $67 (minimum) for the 128GB Module plus an eMMC adapter to be able to transfer the OS on it...
ORDER FROM NOVEMBER: ADVICE?

Hello, I ordered my ANSI PineBook Pro from the USA on November 9th.
I received a transaction notification from PayPal, verifying payment of US $254.99 to Syabas Technology Hong Kong, Limited, but have no subsequent order notification or acknowledgement by Pine.

Later, I separately ordered several accessories, like the NMVe adaptor, etc., and received prompt notice of order placement, and shipping notification, etc.

Is this normal? How do I assure that my PBP order is correctly received by Pine, and that I have prioritization in delivery queue for early November?

Any and all advice and assistance is welcome and appreciated.

Thanks!

The good folks at Sales@pine64.org solved this and provided me an invoice number. Mine never made email, somehow.

Thanks to all!

   I think the difference is the accessories are 'in stock' so they will be shipped soon, that is why those have
'shipping information'.
   While the PBP  is at another location (perhaps the assembly plant ? )

  When they dropped off my previous PBP at the DHL originating shipping point in Hong Kong,
      I received a shipping notice (text) from DHL.

  The accessories are shipped via normal post, so those could take a while as most items from China
   Do take a while,  (sometimes annoyingly long...)

  While it may still be dangerous for deliveries going into Hong Kong with the civil unrest there,
     but once the items do reach the DHL shipping point, they seem to travel very,
      very quickly from there,  to their destinations.

  AND while you are notified via email for your accessories,
         DHL will likely send you a text message to your listed phone number.

   >    "This has been my experience so far with the Pine Store".

      >  I am in the USA,  but I think it is simuliar with most locations Globally

**
I Do NOT know what happens if you gave them a landline phone number ?
As most landlines do not accept text...
But, I did receive step by step texts from DHL as my PBP got closer.
** First DHL text (from Hong Kong) was on a Thursday morning, it was delivered Friday at 4pm **
