Just preordered the Aura One - Page 2

aceflor · 08-24-2016, 03:12 AM

I preordered it too, on the fnac.es site. I won't be in France anymore on Sep 1st, so I missed on the adhérent rebate (shoot) but oh well, at least this time around the fnac was clever enough to sell it in its Spanish subsidiary too..
Expected delivery between Sep 8th and 10th.

No option for pre-order with the designated retailers here in Australia either. In fact, I notice that using the Kobobooks website with an Aussie login doesn't even give a mention of the new ONE on the Readers page.

But we're always well down the list of scheduled rollouts. Maybe it'll be my Christmas present? ;-)

I'm not sure but perhaps I preorder it here (I've the FNAC card, so rebate is OK, and from today till Friday there's an additional 15%, that I'll see if it applies).

That fits with releases of previous Kobo devices. One day they will appear in the shops and on web-sites.

The weird part is that a Dutch shop was the first to blow the whistle, but now no shop has any sign of it at all (including the one that was a bit premature).

Yeah mate, I think I covered that with "But we're always well down the list of scheduled rollouts." ;-)

Not as far as Brazil. We're supposed to see them October/November. Brazil is March.

Teresa, it seems the rebate is only available on fnac.com with delivery to France ...

I am a socio/adhérent in both countries, bu only can get the pre-order rebate in France, which will not work out time wise for me this time...

Mercador · 08-24-2016, 10:27 AM

I wonder why we Can't preorder in Canadaland, though we like homemade products...

Where 15%? I can't see it anywhere on the fnac.com site, just the usual adhérent 5%.

Where would the best place be to buy for someone living in the US? I'm assuming Best Buy won't have them here. I really wish I could use an Amazon gift card I've been saving.

For now probably the kobo store only, however I got an email from kobo stating if I refer friends I get $5 bucks per referral maybe we can link it and boost the credit....
