yup. Same here.

I had some dns issues and solved it with:

sudo su

echo "208.113.151.247 shop.avalon-asic.com" >> /etc/hosts



windows users - google "windows hosts file" and edit it with notepad

I have also emailed you when the announcement was made and am currently unable to access the store. I hope there will still be one unit reserved for me.

Ordering Issues

DNS - Due to some unexpected issues, we understand a lot of people are unable to place orders, to quickly address the issue we have removed 100 units from the pre-order website to relaunch as a second wave of pre-orders in case you are currently unable to load the website. The second-wave date will be announced shortly.

Wire Transfers - We are currently overwhelmed with keeping the site operational, once the order have calm down a bit we will begin the process the wire transfers, once you have received the appropriate information for the wire transfer you have 4 days to complete said wire until the order is canceled.

So even if you did not get a chance to order one in the second wave there is still a possibility somebody will not pay up and complete the order.

How can that solve the issue? What if another networking issue hits the 2nd wave?

I would have much preferred to pay for my order 4 days ago when I first e-mailed you. Why can the people who have already showed interest not reserve units? This seems a little unfair, as the number of units that I wanted have been factored into your plans, only for them to be purchased by somebody else.

Wire Transfers - What do you mean by 4 days?

To get money in your account or to get a proof of transfer - Swift? For instance if i have to make "fast wire transfer" i will have to spent almost 100 USD just for the bank fees. Can this be avoided?
Keep in mind even though transfers happen over "Wire" during weekends nothing has been  transfered at all

I think it's safe to remove this line:

"A full refund will happen if not all of the 300 pre-orders are filled within 2 weeks, ( Oct. 8th, 2012 )"

we know there are some DNS problems in some area, so we just reserved about 100 units. in order to open a second launch after all issues solved.

open the site directly by IP address is won't do. this is a function for DDOS protect.



Is it safe for me to go to sleep yet? I might not die an honourable death if I don't get one of those pre-order units.

change your DNS It willl solve the issue!

Not everyone has direct access to their network hardware. I, for instance, don't.

Everyone has direct access to its host file.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hosts_(file)

I'm in anyway.

Good luck anyone!

ngzhang: do the people in this thread a huge favor. take note of us trying to get a unit. there is probably a dozen of us trying right now
as i type this and posting about our troubles.

reserve about 12 units for us. decrease the amount left available by 12 so you can come back to us and get us what we are attempting
to buy....
You can add me to that list as well. Will need some time to convert the funds to coins or make the wire transfer if still available.

Their site is down no matter how many times I try to refresh it.
