    It’s pricey inside the US also.

    My laptop actually just died yesterday. But if I wanted one of these I’d be paying out the ass and going without a laptop for several months.

      I don’t believe in pre-ordering, so I bought a framework from the ships immediately pile. I was in your situation, my last laptop had died and i needed a new one. I just speced out “good enough”, and ordered. I’m still quite happy with my framework 13.

              Also apart from the expansion cards, the ram and SSD are quite cheaper to get elsewhere, especially if you can reuse your old laptop’s. So it’s still possible to get a sub 1k config.
