Cancel the eastern vacations for Jolla and fix your refund today so people can order an Ubuntu tablet on Monday. or atleast give the supporters choices to use the money today.

I just checked the link. Maybe what's rarer is anyone that's willing pay that price. Zero bids so far!

EDIT: One more thing. Seeing such consumer wisdom is renewing my faith in humanity...

They have relisted it with a more reasonable starting bid of £299 + P&P, but there's still some markup there.

A huge part of me doesn't blame him. During the Christmas holidays, I was presented with the chance to sell an extra Apple Pencil that I had acquired and was in very short supply.

They normally sold for $99 USD, it sold for $180 USD in the end.

I'm quite sure at £299, it might very well sell to a true fan whereas the prior price was sheer gouging.

I have no doubt it will be sold with a similar or higher final price, I was quite attempted myself. Still cheaper than a highend phone (even cheaper than the newest small iProduct)

Feel a bit like circulation of N950 a few years ago. The question for me is was it really worth the extra amount...

Not quite as bad for me. Not getting n950, with all the build up and what followed really was devastating...

I believe this is a valid question for all. But we definitely agree 100%.

It would have to be. If it was a Windows tablet it'd be about £30-100 max and arguably they're more useful, sadly. :(
