Woops... I just realized that the 'refund' I thought I had received from Bitsyncom was actually an unrelated bitcoin transfer (from a different source). No refund action yet from Bitsyncom --- though... ahh... still not worried. I am sure they have bigger concerns with dealing with trade-ins, batch3 and chips. I imagine we will see some traction after those are sorted.

I think we are all being too optimistic on the other companies. They are going to martinfail out on their deadlines, realistically.
Really the reason I chose a refund for Batch 3 was not because of ROI, but because... let's be real, and over-clocked Avalon running fans 100% (4000 rpm) near where I sleep was just about as close to psychological torture as I think I've experienced yet. On one hand, you don't want to turn off the machine because you're losing money, but on the other hand, it's like sleeping next to a jet engine, waking up covered in sweat.
Mining is a professional business.

+1. Also, risk of fire when not attended, constant power drain, constant babysitting in case of issues, power outages, etc... It's not something I wanted to deal with. Of course, I may be just saying all this to validate my decision, but these are all factors that I considered when asking for a refund.

I must confess the fanless design of one of the competitors product was a factor in my refund as well.

I've been out of the loop for a bit on bitcoin talk and Avalon over the last 3 or 4 months. Why are people getting refunded on their batch 3's? Is Avalon forcing them to take refunds, or are people looking for a refund on their own, and if so why?
There's a ton of companies that have scheduled to release a crapload of powerful miners in August/September/October. IF they succeed, batch 3 will never make ROI. If they fail, batch 3 will make profit. People who requested refund think those other companies will succeed, people who stuck around think they will fail. Time will tell.

Just check the current hash rate of the whole net you will get the answer.

I think the middle of August you might get some takers (at that price)

Upping my offer to $5000 per.

I submitted the request July 13th, and the support ticket was received.
If you submitted the refund request through their customer support system, odds are that they never received it. I think we were supposed to use that Google Forms thing they set up for us.
Oh wow...I could have sworn I read somewhere else that we were supposed to submit a ticket... they even offer "Refund" as a subject for the ticket!
What to do... what to do...
I will refund your order.... I mean I will re-buy it from you and pay for shipping to my place.

Has anyone requested a refund and NOT had even the status change?
My ticket status hasn't changed. Still showing 'Being Processed' since logging a ticket 25 days ago.
July 19, 2013, 10:41:09 PM
Sorry... yes.
I should have been more clean.
Was wondering if anyone in "Refund Processing" got a full refund and had it go to "Refunded" state.

Anyone get a full refund yet?
Did your status on the store go to "refunded"?
I did. And yes. Did your status on the store go to "refunded"?

I hope they at least check the tickets before sending the refund. I put the wrong refund address into the google doc form (stupidly I put the address I paid to instead of paid from) and submitted a ticket with the correct address and relevant proof that I was who I said I was.
Seeing as how they didn't even touch my ticket, I would NOT assume that!
Do everything you can to contact them.

This makes no sense at all.
My 46XX order is still in "processing"
How did you get the tracking # ?
Via email or from the Avalon store webpage ?
