    Well please enlighten me on how I was supposed to know you knew what Giteki is?

    Did F(x)tec or BicCamera tell you when the phones in question were ordered? And the amount? For what I know, these could be old orders too. But sure they might not.

    I'm not taunting, but a little tired of accusations that seems to be based on assumptions in here.

    Okay. I am a bad guy. I thought I was a customer who paid already. I just should not believe estimated delivery schedule they said. all my fault.

    Well I can not answer the "why", but for all we know they could have had an old order too.
    And since they are already "Out of stock", it is not that it is in any way in general availability in the Japanese market either.

    When I checked their web-store on July 11, it was the same. Marked as "in stock", but browsing through the actual stores they were marked as coming at a later day.
    So if they really had just one for each store it must have sold as hot cakes, as there are none now.

    And unless I misunderstood something, Giteki is not a matter of a special version, but a mater of tests and paperwork (similar to FCC). See e.g. this

     

    Dude, I am Japanese. I know what Giteki means. That was what Fxtec explained to me. They just wanted me to calm down by telling me there are different.
    They said Links will be selling the Japanese version of the pro1 and this is Giteki certified which is a different to the remaining pre-orders. 

    Some Japanese Youtuber already uploaded "unbox' type videos recently. Do I need to explain this? Are you taunting me? Fxtec started to sell the phones without shipment for pre-order is done. That's it. All I want is explanation, but they don't.

    If they ever had it, how many did they get? 1?, 2?

    I don't understand why I'm questioned about this. Not sure if it is already sold out, but it was in stores since July 11.  Fxtec said those are Giteki certified version. I do not get why they start to make Giteki certified version before shipping to all pre-buy customers.

    Where did you hear this?

    I emailed back to support team. They said tracking was sent to me by the end of this week so I wanted to check it was on the schedule. However, they said it is going to be by the end of NEXT week again.

    Maybe try to contact them using their web form.

    Of course I did. They answered once on June 9. Following was their reply.

    Unfortunately, we aren’t able to provide precise shipping dates for each order. However, we have surprised a lot of our customers by shipping it earlier than initially expected. Based on the least optimistic estimate, we’ll have your device shipped by August. We’re getting another batch in 2 weeks, but we can’t promise any of our customers, as we simply have a lot of pre-orders to process.

    Then Japanese distributer announced they start to sell the phone from July 4. So I asked them by using their web form, but they have not answered yet. I have no idea how they can treat customers paid in advance like this.

    At one point it said summer 2019.

    You would think so.  But the past has shown us this is not the case.  The last time they shipped to retailers (dragonbox and clove) forum users (and others) snapped them up quickly, those with preorders with fxtec then cancelling their order.

    But also the past has shown is FxTec is not always accurate with their estimates.  And if that Japanese site isn't even known for reliability, that makes it even less likely.  I doubt they'll have them for sale mid July, and based on someone above saying Fxtec told them they won't get theirs til August, it doesn't seem like Fxtec expects to be done all the backorders by mid July.   

    So unless we hear some more information from Fxtec to consider in regards to this, just keep paying attention; if they do happen to go for sale, order quickly, cuz they will likely sell out fast again.

     

    I sent message to their support team, but never answered. All I need is explanation. I hardly imagine this phone really exists.
