Where can I buy the ESP-32? (I don't speak Chinese.)

[JustNopIt]

On http://www.espressif.com/en/products/ha ... 2/overview The "Online Shop" link just sends you to https://shop113593007.world.taobao.com/
But I don't speak Chinese and google translate can only translate very few parts of the page.

Where will I be able to buy the ESP-32 without getting scammed?
I already found a couple of offers on aliexpress.com, but I really don't trust them.

So where am I supposed to go?

[JustNopIt]

I found an offer for the raw SoC in the Espressif's toabao store: https://translate.google.com/translate? ... 657387.htm
But I don't speak any Chinese and the translation is rather bad.

I'm also not really looking for the raw SoC. I'm more interested in the module.
PLEASE! Tell us where to buy and which sellers are trusted!

Hi,

Espressif has a store on aliexpress?
Will be nice to purchase the new ESP32 from aliexpress,
and to avoid fake chips!

Regards.

I already posted that link in the second post.
But I still don't speak Chinese and I still want to buy the module, not the raw SoC.

We all do, but probably at least 2-4 more weeks before modules are available. Once module production ramps up, they will be everywhere: eBay, Ali express, etc... Everywhere esp8266 is now.

who put the chip "back" in wrong direction ?

btw
how is the chip named?
it look like the chip gets a long name? esp32 MEGA ??

Is there a diy way of making a module?
Can I buy the module board and the chip and solder the two together?
Would a reflow station be sufficient? or would I actually need to solder?
