Make sure you don't tick the "Stay up to date with Framework newsletters" checkbox, I didn't and haven't received any marketing
I’ve got the money here, had it for at least two years. I just don’t have a way to give it to Framework
> All warranty service will require a shipping address within one of the EU countries we ship to.
So if I need to warranty something, I need to figure out how to have a shipping address in, say, Germany? Easy!
Oh and if the 2.5k€ laptop gets damaged by a 3rd party shipping company, I'm on the hook for it.
Yea, I'll wait. I can't figure out why it's so hard to ship stuff within the EU. The whole purpose of the European Union is to make moving products easy inside its borders.
it's not, at least not in my experience.
Tangentially, as they are doing it already, selling _to consumers_ is quite hard. Each country has different regulation placing a lot of obligations on the seller.
Such as? Just curious
That's the whole damn point of the EU.
I think there might be some regulation on having the instructions written in the native language, but that's like 100€ to a translator for an one-time job. No laptop comes with an extensive manual.
Warranty terms are EU-wide too mostly, there are some country-specific exceptions, but nothing that would require a huge legal team to handle.
From Germany: specific requirements for "impressum" on each website. Definition of all quantities in SI units.
Things get more funny if you touch any food: labelling regulations have a common EU base, but definition of what detail level is required for each element is per country, and they do differ significantly.
For everywhere: obligation to collect and report VAT for each destination country.
IIRC they are fairly consistent across the EU (simplifying cross border commerce is one of main reasons it exists)
