I ordered one the last time they came in stock just for a rainy day. It's still in the box, untouched aside from opening to take a look. Real nice packaging. Haven't found a direct need for it yet but I am sure the time will come.

lol same I was just happy to get it at msrp

I'm like you, but mine has come out of the box. I've turned my TV on and off a few times, and test scanned a handful of my Amiibo. A fun toy, but still waiting for the use case that has me playing with it more often.

Killer usecase for me: it replaced all my remotes - including for AC, windows shades and garage doors.

Kinda the same. I opened it and loaded one of the jailbroken OSs but haven't had much use for it.

> One order can contain up to: 2 Flippers, 3 Silicone Cases, 3 Wifi Devboards, 5 Screen Protectors, 5 Prototyping Boards, If your order violates these limits, it will be canceled.

… so why does the ui allow this order to be placed in the first place? Seems silly.

This reminds me of Pine64 not letting you order things with a battery at the same time as things without, but it will all go into your cart and just show up like they don't ship to your country or something. Insane to me they never fixed this. People came to the IRC confused over this constantly. Also it sucks you can't combine them because their shipping isn't cheap.

Most people running ecommerce shops like this arent Web developers nor want to custom dev the shopping cart.

It looks like a standard shopify storefront. Do they allow limiting quantities like that?

I got mine very early, it’s kind of neat. I do no security for my job so it’s purely a hobby thing. And although I like things like robots and raspberry pis, I’ve found myself mostly at a loss for what to do with the Flipper, aside from some fun yarns like replaying keyfobs or copying rfid tags.

And funny enough that site seems to use Amazon AWS, along with far too many others such that it exhausted my little snitch patience. Shame, sounds like a fun gadget.

The problem for me is that even the official price is extremely high. At least by EU standards. And when you include VAT. That put me off buying one. Though I work in security and we might get one for work eventually
