I really want to get a Framework to replace my aging IdeaPad, but they don't ship to my region yet.

I was planning on ordering the 7840U version to where I'm staying in a trip to the US, but now it feels a bit of a let down to order a last-gen model since the new one might not arrive in time for my trip in mid-April.



Have you considered looking into a personal freight forwarder? I used these a few times while traveling through Europe.


Be careful with this because framework will not warranty your product in any way, and given their size and age, there is a not insignificant chance you will experience a product defect or failure and have no recourse, love my framework but I experienced a mainboard bricking after a failed firmware update, which framework addressed under warranty. I would caution against buying without a warranty.


I looked into it, but Framework explicitly states that they will cancel orders to freight forwarding addresses.
