Then why are they offering some tablets, and refunding the others? Why are orders not opened again?

Why would you do after you've waited a reasonable amount of time?

I can sort of understand why they'd offer them for sale when it looked like Jolla was going bankrupt, but there's no good reason not to withdraw them when they recovered. What they're trying to do is maximize their return by selling the tablets to *you again*. That's why they have Jolla branding all over them, to get you to buy them.
