Yep. I really can't remember the exact trifle that made it really hard for me. It was about 9 years ago and I switched to 3d printing instead, which was a good decision (though I had to make I forcefully), so I won't look back.
Most annoying was that the C'T magazine had a little article about me selling orange pi. After release of that magazine I was bombarded with request for orange pi's but I was not able to fulfill the requests. It could have been such a good start into self-employment.
Furthermore I already had a trustworthy and reliable agent in china that would handle everything on that side for me. Matter of fact I later introduced him in a company I worked for. He still is sourcing things for them.
I had a good contact to one of the sales reps at orange pi, and already sold about 100 devices.
Just then EU knocked on my door like: "Hello it's freedom. We prohibit you to import those devices".
