I tried to summarize the current situation as described in this thread.

  • Nobody has received a personal email after the latest newsletter. Yifu mentioned that he sent out about 50% thursday night, but nobody so far has indicated that they received it.
    Yifu have not been heard of since that post.
  • He also on the one hand confirmed the Batch #2 pricing but on the other hand for some reason got the price wrong anyway. ($1600 vs. $1500 - rebate) Perhaps a memory lapse. It's hard to remember that far back...
  • Many has had their order page updated with an order "on-hold", and the number of units seem to be mostly correct.
  • The price on the order page says 78 BTC, but some people has a note added on the details page indicating a price 17.4 BTC together with a payment address.

This is what I have gathered from your posts (please correct me if I misunderstood):

allinvain: order on hold, payment address and price (17.4) on order page, payment made but no confirmation
rudrigor2: order on hold, no payment address

I also sent payment to the address listed for my order in the store.  I updated the support ticket I have open with the transaction info, I figure that's the best place to keep things documented.


I opened a support ticket too. It seemed like a good idea. At the very least they will have a "formal" notification of the problem that we are all experiencing.

If I had to guess I'd say that payments are confirmed manually and they just did not get around to it.



We all sent our hardware to Avalon as demanded on 16. April. Most of us dont have a real contact with the Avalon Team till today. In that package there was our contact data as demanded in the Newsletter.

On 16. April i asked myself, what is so hard to get a list from ngzhang and contact us personaly, but ok probably they ask for proof, so i sended the requested contact data letter with the hardware. I would like to understand what for we had to send it for, since we have no contact till today? I had a order listed and on hold in the Avalon store, but it was deleted a month ago  and every tickets is unanswered since then (30 Days now).

Mr Chen holds a reliable and organized list of everyone that sent machines to him.
Such a low work efficiency is really difficult to understand.What is the customer perception, only after the know transposition thinking.

Please edit the list with this Data:
Sended Trade-In: Tue 16.04.2013    07:52
Swiss Post: RC659890833CH – international shipment (Switzerland → China, People's Republic)
Avalon Support Ticket: 1045
Thank you.

It was 399/499 off per trad-in and 1500 per Avalon, there never was a limit like "you just get the amount of boards you sended us". Since there is no change for trade-ins according to Bitsyncom, i assume it as still valid.

I paid, but no confirmation either via e-mail from someone or from the store. It still shows as "trade in on hold".

Thanks allinvain for testing this. Hopefully you'll get a notification soon.

Having a payment address looks promising, I'm just hesitating before sending the BTC because the store listing itself is confusing and I never got a tradein notice to my email address directly. Not sure why my support ticket hasn't been responded to, but it could be just cause it's the weekend.

This whole situation is realy sad, we was ready for a real biz cooperation with the avalon team, but the whole situation now looks like kiddieswork. Its awesome that they came up with 110nm ASIC, they deserve respect for that, but i dont understand there costumer politics.

Im aware its not realy trade-in related but we like to share our knowledge about 2 nm production: https://devda.ch/content/optical-nanofabrication-2-nm-and-1-nm-pattern-transfer-silicon-wafer

@Yifu, why did not every trade-in customer receive a mail ?

(Did you do this on purpose or is this because of an error/spamfilter ?)

Maybe we can get some clarity instead of weeks of discussion...

mmm, that's odd guys, I'm pretty sure rudrigorc and allinvain should have gotten emails, I remember sending about 50% of them before having to run off to another meeting earlier today.

care to check store / emails?

also yes, trade-ins are batch #2 prices, so $1600 at current exchange rate. I think the number used was 17.2-17.4ish

BitSyncom will you please address your Batch 2 Problem Orders Thread

Same here...
Still nothing.

But i guess, it should take some time. Undecided

Hope, they will send all emails by the end of the day.

I guess, waiting time is almost over, we have to be patient, just a little bit more)

Nothing for me.  

I guess we'll have to wait until next week; I'm not sure they work on the weekend.

BTW, I even checked HTML source just to make sure:

Has anyone paid to the address listed in their account and gotten confirmation that their payment was received in the store respectively?

I paid, but no confirmation either via e-mail from someone or from the store. It still shows as "trade in on hold".
Why did avalon open online customer service so difficult?It could solve a lot of problems,just like msn,qq etc.
