Hi all,
there are some news about the invite system over at the oneplus forum:
Update 3 (May 9, 2014): There are a few commonly asked questions regarding the invite system that I can help clear up:
How do I get an invite?
The main method of getting invites will be through others. In the beginning, when not a lot of other people have the device, you'll be able to get invites through contest and raffles. We have planned ways so our early fans, as well as people who weren't here from the beginning will be able to obtain invites.
When do the next batch of invites roll out?
The first real batch of invites roll out late May, and will be of the 64GB Sandstone Black version. Any invites that you might have been promised before this, will be sent during this time.
How long are invites valid for?
For invites that you receive, they are typically valid for 24 hours. If they expire, they get returned to sender so someone else can get a chance to buy it. Alternatively, you can ask for the sender to resend it to you. For invites that you can give away, they are usually valid for longer, usually 1-2 weeks.
How many invites can I give away?
This varies. In the beginning, the quantities will be smaller, but increased as time goes by. You will frequently receive new invites to give away as production ramps up.
When do I receive invites to give away?
You do not automatically receive invites when you purchase a phone. We will need to manually roll them out according to our operations situation.

Hope this clarifies some things.
Just as a reminder: If you are looking for invites, please post in this thread!
HELLO TO ALL THAT ARE LOOKING TO HAVE AN INVITE AND HAVE BEEN SO PATIENTLY WAITING!!!
RULES:
I will create a drawing…
I cannot determine who has been waiting the longest SO I will wait for the first 50 replies OR all replies between now and 19h00 EDT. (whichever comes first)
I will then run a random number equivalent to the number of replies and then offer THE ONEPLUS INVITE to the corresponding entry. :fingers-crossed:
Send me a good reason why I should choose you
Write at least one complete sentence
(Be creative) ...NOTE: WHAT YOU WRITE WILL HAVE NO IMPACT AS TO THE CHOICE OF THE WINNER!!! but... makes for good reading.
This is a 24 hour invite and I received it at 8h45 EDT August 26, 2014
The drawing will take place at 19h00 EDT
Please do not reply to this invite if you are not able to proceed with the purchase of this phone.
If I do not hear back from the winner within 45 minutes I will make another drawing at 20h00 EDT
I will post the winner between 19h00 and 19h30 EDT or once the winner has been confirmed
FYI:
I already have mine and am really enjoying it. The cost of the phone was $350 USD + $26.00 USD (expedited shipping) :good:
For me who lives in Canada, the cost was:
$410.00 CAD via Paypal (no choice) , plus the duties of $65.00 CAD that I had to pay at the door COD. :crying: (I wish they would offer USPS as a shipping option)
Wahoo!! Im pretty sure this thread will shut down shortly...
I would like to participate, as I am waiting for mine to ship and I don't want my wife to be jealous that she doesn't have one also

As I have not heard back from the first winner I have done a redraw and you would be the winner. I need to hear back by 21h00 EDT. I will send you the invite as soon as I hear from you.
Come on now. There's a roll up thread to post OPO invites. Why open a thread just so it can get closed?
Please post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/wishing-invite-soon-t2825090
Hi,
I have 3 invites to share for you to buy the Oneplus One. They are for the Sandstone Black 64gb version. $350 to buy. Put some taxes and a cover and you will get to $400. I believe it is well worth it though.
If you want an invite, leave a Thanks and a comment. I will pick you at random or if I really like your comment.
Other notes: your phone may come with a bellow band close to the bottom of the screen. It is really annoying, but it can be fixed in software.
The invites expire in 3 days from now. That is 9/25/2014 so act soon. You will have 24 hours to purchase it or the invite expires.
I am not selling these invites so you should not either. If you comment be ready to spend the money to get it.
Pls send 1 to me
[email protected]
Thanks a alot

Unfortunately i don't have a great message count here, but you can check my record in biggest computing forum in Russia - 4PDA
I want to share with you my very unsuccessful experience with that company called Sunchip!
In december 2014 i bought CX-929 RK3288 android stick from them. It arrived pretty fast with DHL and pre-sale communication was also very fast.
In January 2015 i contacted Sunchip to order another unit for my aunt as a gift for her birthday, and again everything was very quick and unit arrived just in time..
Ok, so now the issue. My own unit (the one i bought in late december) just got broken. No signal. it was recognising Ok by PC, i could flash by backup files but it was something hardware related, probably HDMI.
So i contacted Sunchip about my problem, and that where the problems begun.. First of all communication speed has drastically fall. I roughly got replies once in couple of days.. Then, after we agreed that i need to send my unit to them for repair i been asked to cover both shipments to and from Sunchip! In my long years practice with China suppliers this is unusual request, especially when purchase been made just in less than a month prior to warranty cal! Only after my direct email to CEO of sunchip, they accepted one way delivery payment! So i sent my package to china with registered mail on 08.02.2015 and it's arrived in China pretty quick. Unfortunately it fall on New year hollidays in China, so i been forced to wait untill sunchip will back to work on 27.02.2015 as per Mr. Kobe Chen words.. here is the quote :
Hi Jacob,
Well noted, we are on Chinese new year holidays and will be back to office on Feb 27th, we will inform you when we receive the package.
Thanks.
Regards,
Kobe

I don't like to push on people so i waited patiently even untill 03.03.2015, but because nobody contacted me, i asked Suchip if there is any update ?
Hi Jacob,
Sorry, we haven't received the parcel now, I checked the status from the website as below, there was no any updates from FEB.22, it seems that we need to go to the post office to check further.
I'll update to you once available.

That was the last email i got from Sunchip!!! Since then i didn't received anything from Suchip.
See below my last couple of emails that not received any attention even though they was sent directly to CEO and to Sales manager :
12.03.2015
Dear Mr. Aigo Xu , Mr. Kobe Chen,
Unfortunately it’s more than a month now since I wrote you my mail. I already sent my package and it’s arrived in China on 24.02.2015.
I am aware your company was on new year holidays until 27.02, but why we are now on 12.03.2015, 2 weeks after you fully back to work and nobody care to go to the office and collect my package ??
Please see below Rachel’s answer I received on 03.03.2015 :

Many thanks,

So i paid 95$ to this company for the stick and 10$ for the repair shipment and i have nothing for now and it doesn't looks like they even care to wrote me couple of words.
So If you read this - Mr. Kobe, Mr. Aigo Xu or Mrs. Rachel, you can keep this unit with yourselves and save couple of bucks as you probably decided to do. I just hope that this message will be read by people who maybe thought to buy something from you and it will help them to save few bucks too...
Thank you for reading.
* For forum moderators. If i posted my message in wrong place please move it to correct one as it's important to make people aware about such cases. I can send all my conversations as a proof by request.
*Only Indian specific invites to be shared*
Please post your invite requests into this thread. This will keep the OnePlus X forums from filling up with millions of invite requests that will just end up getting ignored. It will also help people with invites to find the people who need them.
Don't just post a story of Why you need it, just write 'I want one' and let others do the thing, once you get your hands on the invitation kindly do not waste it, invites are rare as we all know it.
Also to people who will share the invitations please prefer the Recognised Developers/Contributors of XDA first, since it will speed up the development of this device .
Once you get your invite, please edit your request to "got one" or something similar to make it easier on everyone & don't forget to share your extra invites too!
*Any selling of invites on XDA is strictly prohibited and will result in the post(s) being deleted and an infraction towards your account*
I need one invite !!! And first one to reply.
Wow!
So I received a mail from OnePlus few hours back and I thought it was just confirmation that you have been added to the invite waiting list bla bla ....
But now that I looked at it again, unexpectedly it turned out to be actual Invite to buy the One Plus X !!!!!!!!!!!!
I never got an invite for the OnePlus 1 and got an invite for OnePlus 2 last week (3 months after registration)
And now I have have on the day of announcement!!! Don't know if it's my Lucky Stars or OnePlus has indeed upgraded their stock and invite system and are giving out invites faster this time !
Anyone else got an invite today?

There are 2 types of invites one is the invite which you get from OnePlus directly (after registering or winning contests held by them), and those are linked to your EMail id, after an invite email is sent to you, you will have to click on the link which takes you to one plus page where you have to press the "claim" button ... After you press "Claim" button the invite gets activated and then you can put the invite number in amazon site to purchase (if you don;t claim, the invite doesn't get activated and it shows invalid code) .
Also after claiming one invite , you are may get a shareable invite later, in which user has to give email of person who wants the invite, then invite gets sent to that person via one plus and it's again locked to that person's email .
So basically the Shareable invites can be transferred ... and for that email address is required (you have to create an account on OnePlus with same email address to claim it later) .
It's a bit complex system to explain properly :silly:
