Hello,

I bought 25.77 euros (delivery included) an orangepipcplus + cam (set 9) 3 month ago. Today it is sold 30.77 euros => 20% more expensive in only 3 months.

Is there a good reason or is it a joke?

Thx.

I am not paying attention to the part market but memory chips probably went up. Again. This would explain price change.

For example, I had to buy my build server memory upgrade earlier this year. Price was about doubled than two years ago for the same amount of memory. It was not a joke

Orange Pi should be more appropriately re-named Lemon Pi, it is a cheap piece of junk! Better go with Raspberry pi instead of lemon.

I am so sorry but if it is a mistake of cheap, we should be responsible for for it. As i know that our support is not enough, we are trying our best at it.

Best orange pi to get is the orange pi zero h2, you can try shorting the pins and it will just reboo ...

Very appreciate with your trust! We will try our best in the future.

I must say I'm really happy with my Orange Pi's!

I have a:

OPi Zero running Transmission behind OpenVPN and also as a NAS (1TB USB HDD)

Opi Lite2 running as a mySQL, Samba servers while also running NZBGet and Sickrage (4TB USB HDD)
OPi One running RetrOrangePi

I have unused at the moment:
OPi Zero Plus with H5
OPi Zero Plus 2 H3

On the forums tonight to find which OPi to use for OctoPi
