@krisrodriguez Czarina, would you be kind enough and apply the mighty Mjölnir to these spamming muppets? https://www.ifixit.com/User/3942694/stev... https://www.ifixit.com/User/3945667/andr... https://www.ifixit.com/User/4037718/Nanc... https://www.ifixit.com/User/4033779/Anuj...

@krisrodriguez @amber @jogihara, @kristen, @sarahw looks like https://www.ifixit.com/User/Activity/483... had a couple of comments deleted by what I assume was iRobot looking for Spam https://www.ifixit.com/Answers/View/7180... I cannot determine if this was done by iRobot being overzealous or if that is a true occurrence. Users profile checks out to be pretty solid and nothing that looks like a spammer :-)

MrKies1999 this is really hard to say because the iFixit team is always pretty busy. We really can’t expect them to tear down every interesting device. After all, there is also a cost involved. They buy it to tear it down, Until you get an official answer I would suggest you keep an eye on Microsoft since they are now finally jumping on the bandwagon and make their service manuals public. Check on here frequently.

@soultenq it looks like iFixit does not ship to the Russian Federation. Check here https://help.ifixit.com/article/45-international-shipping for the countries that are being shipped to. You may have to check the European iFixit stores to see if they ship to your country or use a re-shipper (forwarding agent) to have those items shipped to you. Of course, if in doubt contact iFixit customer support https://help.ifixit.com/collection/130-contact-us and see what they suggest.

@cliff44 I actually ended up moving your questions to Answers instead of Meta. Check on here https://www.ifixit.com/Answers/View/7179... Should be a lot easier to ask a repair question on that part of iFixit :-) To post a question is actually pretty straight forward 1st you select the “ask a Question” button The next screen that appears lets you ask the question and enter the details. Once done you select the “ Preview your Question” button Which will show you what your question looks like etc. Once satisfied with it, select the “Submit Question” button which will then post your question. Slightly different in Answers. There you can actually select the “Device” . In your case it’ll be the Honda as the device your question is all about.

@dan_6384856255 looks like your answer as well as the question, fell victim to our resident overachieving spam fighter, iRobot. Question and answer have been restored and negative point count corrected :-)

@amber Well, there really is nothing going on in my area that would even remotely qualify. Our HS STEM is actually well funded and does not really lack anything. Sadly enough our local junior college lacks any kind of engagement. A few of my colleagues and associates tried to get at least a facsimile of a repair cafe of the ground but it all frizzled away due to an unbelievable  lack of interest. People here are just not into repair, reducing or repurposing. We are still heavy into replacing. We suffer form severe myopia and do not grasp what‘s coming at us. Personally, I would try and see if there is anything like a tool library that is in existence or at least planned around your local area. I am certain that those folks would and could use your generous help. On a national level, Robin Ingenthron does some pretty good stuff with cooperatives in Mexico and some African nations as well as Coco Henkerson at cocothegeek.com who really rocks it in Atlanta. Just my 2 cents….

@amber looks like it was for the iPad 8 Dolley J it appears as if iFixit does not yet have the LCD in stock. Of course, you can always contact the customer service department by any of these ways https://help.ifixit.com/category/133-contact-ifixit-customer-support for confirmation.

@krisrodriguez you sure you want to do this “Guide Community Manager” :-) ? LMBO It’s a tough job dealing with a bunch of headstrong, cantankerous fixers. Congratulations to your new job and welcome to this side of the business. Looking forward to working with you on making the World a better place.

@amber I think this guide https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Best+SMM+Pa...-+Bulk+Cheap+Service/145482#comment-773963 as well as this one https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/SMM+Service...-+Bulk+Cheap+Service/145501 should be taken to the trash. The author of those https://www.ifixit.com/User/4040883/Bulk... should have his services moved somewhere else. Thank you!
