    OPO developers was to create something special and affordable for all of us. I found that some members of OPO their invitations sold through auctions. This is, in my opinion, not fair.We have the opportunity to receive invitations, but do not have the right to do the business.

    It was a good model at first because it required a demand before spending capital on the supply. However with demand rising quicker than the invites that allow it to spread, I think if they sent an email that required a response with X amount of days or hours and required purchase within X amount of days to everyone signed up as a user, they could fulfill their current demand so we may create future demand by actually having the phone and showing it to people.

    If this is the only way some people can afford this phone, it is not so bad. If money is not a problem for you, an invite is easy to get

    Agreed with you but there is lots of people waiting for an invite. You just have to be patient and try hard. You only joined yesterday. Enjoy the waiting game. ;)

    I'm sorry, but OPO makers clearly stated their philosophy on this product. OPO price is two times lower only because everyone can buy it. Doing the business with invites is not nice.

    Agree that the invite-only system is a great way to make sure only passionate people are getting the phone at first. But at this point, it's likely that most people are just waiting until the pre-order window opens.

    Are you kidding? OPO is a business like any other, nothing special about it. Doesn't matter if I buy the phone and sell it afterwards or sell the invite in the first place.

    I agree, but you just joined yesterday and start whining already? :p
    Be patient, you will get your invite eventually.

    Even with the business, there are tons of invites shared on this forum. If you dont want to wait, you should be happy to be able to buy one instantly

    I disagree entirely; I believe that if you receive something as a gift, it is yours to do what you wish with. If that involves selling it to make a profit, then so be it.

    You're telling us this but nothing will change, capitalism is capitalism.. Also, what people do with their invites/phones is their business.
