Best way to get a Fairphone in the US? (lemmy.ml)

Inspired by this thread, I'm looking into getting a Fairphone 3+, but I'm discovering they don't ship to the US at all. It looks like I can get it shipped to the US from this UK seller. Before I pull the trigger, are there any better ways to go about this for those of us in the States?

Just a heads up, buy make sure you're fine with the limited cellular band support.

I have seen a few appear on eBay, the Fairphone subreddit has some recommendations but I think buying from Clove is the easiest - youd be looking at some form of courier service otherwise.

teddit.net/r/Fairphone if you're looking for USA user accounts , also https://forum.fairphone.com/ (less USA centric but lots of good content)

I appreciate the heads up! I did check, and the bands look like some of them should work with my carrier.
