Anyone in China?

Wed Aug 13, 2014 5:02 pm

I'm looking for someone in china to secure me one of those red pis and ship it to me. Im willing to pay any reasonable price to make it happen.
I'm suspecting the thread will get deleted though. The "man" wants for certain to separate the pi users via color. I think this is dumb, unnecessary division.

I think you can buy them from Ebay etc.
Unless specified otherwise my response is based on the latest and fully updated RPiOS Buster w/ Desktop OS.

But why let facts get in the way of a nice bit of conspiracy theory? :roll:

As it happens, I'm in China myself this week (and nobody has called me The Man yet - TBH, I think it's unlikely they will). I've seen both red and green Pis being used here (not bringing one back for you, though, OP); B+ is already selling strongly. And amazingly, I've already met some fans who have been producing B+ addons, even though it's only been available here for about three weeks - check out 52pi.cn if you want to see what they've been up to!
