No doubt Pete (noxskuses) will post sometime, but in the meantime.
There are two completely separate issues here.
The purchase of Traeger-like grills direct from China, as a special order, that Pete was talking about. That project required a minimum order of 10; it seemed to be going ahead at one point, then a couple of people dropped out, which meant Pete no longer had enough to proceed. So to the best of my knowledge, it never happened. I was down for a large grill, but when when things ground to a halt, I concentrated on getting my old Traeger back working again.
Separate from this is the news that Toby mentioned, that Traeger is getting a new distributer in the UK.
Having said that, while the Traeger is a fine grill, if you are in the market for a pellet grill, the GMG grills, which are already available in the UK, are also excellent. I have a small portable Davy Crockett, and I love it.
