1089698 - Link to get a firefox os phone from ebay is broken

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[Jen Fong-Adwent [:ednapiranha]]

If you click on the 'Get a Firefox OS smartphone today' button it brings up a popup with a link to buy it at ebay. Unfortunately that ebay link does not exist anymore.

This is for en-US. Looks like the listing was removed.

Vik, should we revert back to newsletter sign up?

Comment 2

Yes, let's go ahead and do that for now.  I'm looking into this--still looks like ZTE Open C's are being sold on Ebay but I can't find a listing with ZTE as the official seller. 

Thanks for spotting this and fixing.

So we're essentially removing en-US availability for the ZTE Open C until further notice, correct?

Yes - until we confirm that they're continuing sales we should remove US availability.
