Because Digitec's "grey" suppliers do not keep their promises. Digitec is a Swiss supplier and therefore has no official import channel for HomePods, which are not distributed here by Apple.
mine was ordered in mid-December for 105 CHF and has a delivery date in mid-June. The one I ordered a day ago (see top prices) arrived today (D version for 119 CHF).
Yes, Digitec, you can pay me the difference to improve your reputation.
Unfortunately, unexpected delays are always possible and can occur at any time. We are highly dependant on our distributors and the delivery dates, they provide us. So we expect the products to be deliverred within the time frame we show on the website. If there are delays, we depend on getting that information asap so we can make an update. That is why all information on delivery dates is always without guarantee.
Otherwise you can order the US version here. A power adapter is included, otherwise there are no differences to the DE version. The language can be changed to German without any problems. I received the HomePod there within 5 working days.

Since the Homepod is not officially available in Switzerland, Digitec has to import it. Different suppliers have different prices. Differences may therefore arise.
I've been getting the wrong dates again and again for 2 months. Should supposedly come yesterday now again in 8-10 days. Digitec should realise that they can't deliver the item on that day if they don't send out a package themselves. It can't be suppliers or not that they say every week that it will come on that day!
Please contact our customer service directly, so they can check your order and help you accordingly.

I guess the price has been lowered and the system automatically shows certain percentages if they are big enough. This has nothing to do with a promotion.
HomePod mini can be connected to any USB-C charger. If you want to have both on the same power supply, there's this one, for example, which I'm very happy with: Aukey Omnia PA-B4 GaN Charger (65 W, Power Delivery 3.0)
Hello, I can understand what you mean, but the HomePod Mini is not officially available in Switzerland, which is why they are imported from other countries via detours. I've seen that you don't even get a delivery date from various other providers. I think it's simply difficult to import enough devices.
Dear Oliver68
The HomePod is officially *not* distributed by Apple in Switzerland. In concrete terms, this means that it is an import. This generally takes longer. In the current situation, this may be delayed even more.
Apart from that: the people who write newsletters are employed to do just that. Not for the acquisition of equipment. Take a look at how many employees Digitec has :)
Questions are guaranteed not to go unanswered. From 30 days after ordering without delivery, you can cancel your orders via support and the full amount will be credited to you again.
I have since cancelled my Digitec order and ordered the US version from another Swiss online shop and received it a few days later.

A power adapter is included, otherwise there are no differences. The language can easily be changed to German.
Don't understand why Digitec doesn't also offer this more available version and gets involved with unreliable suppliers.
Unfortunately, we do not have any more precise information on the availability of this item at the moment. As soon as we have received an update on availability from our supplier, we will post this information accordingly on our homepage or on your order.
There is NO official channel for importing HomePods and HomePod minis into Switzerland*. Since Apple does not distribute the HomePod in Switzerland, Digitec has to find suppliers in Germany or France who have stock to get some.
But demand is just as crazy in France or Germany as it is in Switzerland. The warehouses are empty, there is nothing left anywhere except in the Apple stores. And again, don't expect to find any in an Apple Store in Geneva or Zurich: You won't have any because, I repeat, the HomePod is not distributed by Apple in Switzerland.
* Thanks to multilingualism and the many patois, as long as Siri does not speak the 300 variants of Swiss German, there will be no official HomePod in Switzerland.
Why does the price and delivery time of these Homepods always change from white to black?
Don't always say different suppliers and conditions.
So far, no supplier has managed to deliver a Homepod.
You have also changed the delivery conditions without a definite date, so why don't you take the Homepods out of the range and not sell them in the Online Shop if you can't deliver?
How can you fool your loyal customers like this? ....
Shipment today and the next day date uncertain but you know if galaxus has received a package from suppliers so please really.
Galaxus has assured me that it will arrive on 23.3, so let's see!
I want a price reduction soon.
I've also been waiting a long time for the big Homepod.
They keep changing the date, the black one said 2 ordered from the supplier yesterday, after 10 minutes it said not available.
The people also write that there is a price difference between the black and white ones because of the different suppliers.
I'm not laughing at the different suppliers, yes of course digitec galaxus (Migros) has 100 suppliers and none of them has managed to deliver yet.
That's all a joke, always postponing the delivery date, you can't be that wrong, not available for a few months.
The small one is now in July and will be postponed 100 per cent 10 times until the end of the year.
always the excuses from Migros Galaxus digi delivery date is always uncertain yes what 1 year or what and the prices of different suppliers and prices of the suppliers aha and all do not deliver yes yes clear.
I as a craftsman make an appointment with galaxus to do a repair on the building 5 minutes before the agreed date I call and say I have to postpone the date by a few months (installation date uncertain).
They also want their money immediately within 20 days, I could also always postpone the payment date, payment uncertain.
