Is batch 1 refunded at this time? If yes I would like to fill in a request for refund of my chips.Ty!

Will we get refunds for the assembly that was purchased as well?
That may not be possible. I think all the components have been purchased already.That's like buying a brand new car, but being told after the sale that the engine is delayed for 2 years. You can have a refund on the engine, but not the car itself. In the meantime, I'm stuck with a car that can't go anywhere, and I can't get my money back.

Yep, it's a shit sandwich alright. However, knowing that the money has already been spent on components, what exactly do you expect Steve to do? He certainly can't refund us all. Are you attempting to be a squeaky wheel?

The point was that several groupbuys from zefir and sebastian have received a notice of delivery within 12h out of the dark even though they requested refund on them.
With Avalon you get stupefied each day.

If batch 1 has in fact been (or will be) refunded, I also have 16 chips from batch 2 for sale. If interested PM me please.

@t13hydra
Please confirm that first batch is refunded. If so, can i use the money to purchase chips from second batch?

me to.Please confirm that first batch is refunded. If so, can i use the money to purchase chips from second batch?
Also who actually holds the batch 2 order, I would like them sent to marto, seems silly to have them sent to t13 to send them on again.
Hope you GB leaders are discussing this.
Maybe best for a thread on the multi group for people to state there required recipient.

completely backward compatible in every way
I do wonder what this is going to look like. If they want to be fully backwards compatible they can't add additional hashing units, that would require a protocol update.
Perhaps they can leverage a higher frequency at the same power use of the gen1 chip.
Or lower power use for the same performance could be interresting for those sensitive to electricity prices.
Also a smaller chip means more chips from a wafer, thus resulting in a cheaper chip. Presuming 55nm isn't four times more expensive then 110nm.
The chips are by far the most expensive components in a miner, making them cheaper could make the whole miner cheaper by a significant factor.
I still want the gen1 chips I ordered. I'll just get the gen2 ones for a new miner.
I think he means to say completely PIN compatible. A protocol update may or may not be needed. If there is a set of hashing units on chip. They may have multiplexed them and added a queue so you can just keep feeding it work units. Like the bitfury chips

The only way I can imagine buying whatever gen of whatever products from Avalon now is escrow which releases the coins only after a valid tracking number is provided.
+1 that would instill far more confidence.

I think we need to use the refunded BTCBTCBTC to purchase gen2 chips in 6 weeks. After all, we have already been waiting 4 months.
Avalon pulled a real dick move, but I've got my money to worry about.

Avalon did the right think refunding gen1 chips instead of shipping them and setting pre-order for gen2 ( or start selling gen 2 from stock like few weeks after gen1 are shipped for same price )
