The Kobo Sage is readily available in Japan as well.

By the way, looking at the price history on kakaku.com, you can see that the price went up by about 10,000 JPY in April. They probably raised the MSRP.

Since I had thought the Sage had gone permanently out of stock in the US back in April of 2025, I was going to post an anniversary update. But, I dug through the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine and it looks like it didn't go out of stock in the US until sometime between May 04 and May 12, 2025:

Oh, well. I was close.

All I can say is it was indeed a CLOSE CALL HERE ... I knew I wanted another Sage, but was holding off as long as I felt I could.

I ordered my backup Sage on May 13, 2025 from Amazon. I'm glad my brain said "Just do it."

I think they're all gone now from the places listed in all those previous links.

If someone knows differently, please post your current info.

I'd love to know what Kobo was/is thinking by leaving a permanently out-of-stock eReader on their eReader page for just about a year now. I'm guessing that part of the rationale was because the Sage was available in other countries. But, now, it appears not to be. So, why is it still listed? And, of course, where's their replacement 8" eReader?

(and, here's a thread talking about the lack of 8" eReaders in general:

My guesses are:

- huge stockpiles of colour readers they want to sell first
- E Ink display supply issues
- both
