Probably because it’s off topic for this thread.

Because you’re a smartarse posting something amongst a lot of people who have expressed anxiety over their purchase. You’re being disingenuous.

Havent’t been around for months here. Reason is my refund. Therefore just adding briefly the according information.
Ordered: 2019-01-09
Asked for refund: 2021-09-28
Refunded: 2021-11-??
Money received: 2022-01-30
Btw. I am wondering why you have to estimate the point in time you will get refunded.
I followed the refund instructions as seen here in this forum (Letter of Deman + consumer compliant to the attention of the Office of the Attorney General, California), and after some back and forth I got my money.

By ‘Refunded’ I mean the date when they sent you back the money. Did that happened on last November or …? why did you received it so late?
Now if only it were reciprocal i.e. no other threads hijacked by people whining about this and that (such as refunds, delays, …).

Have contacted Purism support (just did it again on 2/9/2022) about receiving a refund and they seemed to make up a rule that the product must be in an order queue. Previously, Purism promised to issue refunds to those who ordered Librem 5 phones. Keep in mind, they have my money but I HAVE NO PHONE!!!

Exactly! This was the idea of my posting to show that such postings does not belong into certain threads or not even in this forum at all and should be handled between the person and the company Purism.
From now I will set this pointless thread for me to muted. Good luck.

order: 2019-11-17
refund requested: repeatedly, most recently 2021-12-09
refund rejected (was told they were unable to pay, was offered vouchers towards the purchase of their other products). Will complain to the AG when I eventually find the time to do so, but currently have bigger fish to fry.

Also @john.jay.moore:
I’m going to change the table and sort it by Refund Requested On field, so it matters to have the first date (and not the last) when you requested it. Also I will count the days that passed until someone received the refund (for those who have).
Order date 31/01, 2019
Refund accepted 16/03, 2020
Still waiting for refund

The table is now sorted by the refund Requested date. Also, more info is compiled in the Note field.

Backed the librem 5 in 2017. Received an email that device could be shipped in the end of 2021 and asked for a refund then. Was told it would take a few weeks and then did not received a refund. Asked for the refund again and was told it would be refuned in the first week of april. Still not received a refund and now they refuse to give a date.

Which means (to me) that you could have sold it (six months ago) here to some Forum member or even through some other public network.
It is up to your initiative on how to deal with it, here is link to the one of several threads showing another approach on how to get your money back:
That doesn’t necessarily follow. Could be shipped does not mean it would be shipped – it may only have been a shipping estimate.
Also, customers shouldn’t have to fall back on the market for used goods to get something approximating a refund.

I do agree with this judgement of yours indeed. Although I wasn’t actually suggesting selling away received Librem 5 either. Thanks anyway for correcting me, it was clear and purposely needed reaction from your side!

Were you thinking about transferring the order to another potential customer? That’s also something I wish people weren’t obliged to do. It’s like trying to find someone to pay to take your place in a queue.
Anything between the company and the customer that requires the customer to involve a third party leaves a bitter taste, in my view.
