FYI: I know two different persons in Europe that ordered the chips on April, 16th (first day) and they both just received all the chips after some fight at customs.

I spoke to Yifu today and it sounds like a lot of people will be receiving their chips in the coming weeks. He told me that pretty much all of the 3rd batch had shipped.
How did you "talk" to YiFu? He stated all this on his "news" release last week.
I "talked" to him by calling his "cell phone", not rocket science.. The number is actually on the Avalon press release.
Out of all the countless people that have been blowing up his phone over the past few days, he randomly decided to answer YOUR call. Huh. What are the chances?
You must feel lucky indeed...
Probably a number he didn't recognize, instead of ignoring all the "usual" ones

Its at least a good thing that he answered a call so far... lets hope he is moving some more now.

At last something ships. We got our samples already but when this means the batches might start to ship it could be taken as a good sign.

And their third batch is which batch of ours?
Thx,

Batch 3 means the batch 3 miners, not the chip batches.

Watching the speed and amount of chip/machine supplies I have the impression that Bitsyncom guards drip-bag to sustain the patient alive, but do not give him a chance to quickly get out of bed

Does anyone know anything else about the chip shipments? This is very poor of Avalon. I actually can not believe how they can justify giving no support whatsoever and ignoring everyone.

I'm very jealous - I bought in batch #6....

Sweet!
Too bad no chips are available...
If you will wait for the other chips to ship, all our batches have to comer still, you should check out the auction and goods selling subforums. There are always sales of chips from this groupbuy going on.

I wonder how "Cointerra" and their connections fit into the equation?
August 10, 2013, 07:02:32 PM
Mind you.. getting *something* back is better than losing the lot... which is quite possibly how this ends... people are talking about roi but personally i'm thinking this could end up a BFL scenario where we never see product - they just ask everyone to "trade up" to the next gen.. which people will and then the cycle repeats itself
Considering that people will trade up... You know, personally I won't. And I hope most gen1 customers won't either. Probably someone will order but let's leave scammers and their victims alone. It's not a big deal to be scammed once, provided you haven't put all your eggs into one basket. But when people get scammed and then trust the very same scammer again... maybe they just deserve it?

Say that batch #N was stuck in customs for two weeks now and we believe the official news Avalon posted.
My questions are those customers in batch N just permanently screwed while their chips are waiting there in limbo (are customs trying to extract a bribe)?
From their site, those 200k chips are stuck for 2 weeks already, and there is no indication they will be out in 2 weeks:
"While we have send out some chip orders, there is currently ~200k chips stuck in custom right at this moment for about 2 weeks now"
Or is Avalon going to ship a second batch out to the customers to replace the first batch stuck in customs?
Or are the chips stuck getting to Avalon redistribution channels via customs and therefore they can resend the chips to the end user by using their next arriving shipment?
I had goods I ordered supposedly lost in Chinese customs 10 years ago, and never heard from again. The seller blamed customs and never refunded.
