Can anybody tell me what the amount should be for 100 chips with fees and everything? I can't make sense of the spreadsheet. I've sent a couple of messages to the OP, but I'm sure he's swamped right now.

I just sent my 6.83077137BTC from address 1Dq9q8MBbXFVSSHBtoysxnMwRzeG6rGtTo, just to ensure I don't get kicked out again, or miss the boat if somebody comes in and closes the buy early by making a large payment...

I will submit the balance if/when the seller I just bought another 2 BTC comes through with his end of the bargain.

As far as signing my account, do I just need to copy and paste the text of the contract into the message, or what?

Sweet! Less QQ more pew pew! Lets get this order in guys! Send them bitcoins!

What does this even mean ? Also why do you mention "Please do not make me regret this decision!" - what is there to regret ? Either we get full before Ataxx, or Ataxx comes in and fills the rest. Please clarify.

I'm going with the crowd. Ataxx is seems like a really powerful friend to have. He is buying 206 btc with cash just like that. He owns and operates city.com and has a lot of influence and friends in high places. Seems like a very resourceful and trustworthy guy. I meant that by opening and letting more btc fill up he will be able to buy less so I hope he's not too mad about that. Because originally he wanted in for at least 100 btc.

All operations a go! Lets get on the train again! Choo Choo!

How long have you known Ataxx?  I hate to point out that he was just in newbie jail a few days ago.

True but he's provided me with sufficient proof for me to trust him.

But anyway you guys are right first come first serve.

Sorry about the confusion. Have a good night everyone!

Well, we're on the right track again anyway. Hopefully we get this done and settled by Sunday.  Smiley

Our lead developer said that he can put together an Asics machine for the chips easily even without Avalon releasing their schematics. We're researching the necessary parts now Wink another step forward!

 Shocked Really ?! I would love to know how.

I, bitcointalk.org member dgarrett, have sent 1.08 BTC to escrow address 1At75rKd6e8b7S7AAPzZ5V3kAzhkGYhnpU with the intention of ordering 13 Avalon mining ASIC chips as a part of the group buy organized by bitcointalk.org member ragingazn628 and escrowed by bitcointalk.org member "John (John K.)".

The payment was sent my Bitcoin address 17RXcRMUiXqsQkCqqYKXJkP1B4Lqm47hFB in transaction 9aec2f45059f191dfa9c9691616580c517b27c15a9555570e83589e116def697 and was sent on April 26, 2013.

Signature: HA/r3kBi3HcDLudy2d0yzz5RnQtQ8ASgUzuTDn9F2BeeJVx5SzOaqb4pEblziZ0shAXB2zSF4eyjYJTu8vGKDfs=

I sent 10.035 BTC for 128 chips

TX ID f9e8ff8e1e72af536556d0715ec82f85f9c26b85d6539a40f37913af12b0ba33

Hi John,
I upped my order by 1 BTC
https://blockchain.info/tx/3e4de7feb184fde13660deb2d769ac4828186afef19e7e8f3bc1fd245bd2e818


thanks for the great work, and sorry that you ended up with most of the work.
tip for you will come tomorrow ( 5 Ghash/s hard at work )

just an FYI, the chips are very very small, i think most people here in the forum wont believe how small there actually are. the measure only 7mmx7mm.
and they most likely come in tubes of 100 PCS only about 2 feet long each. 100 of those tubes will fit in a box roughly the size of a micro wave.

regards,
-Jay
Upped, thanks for the clarification.

Please continue sending the BTC.

Angry This is the worse escrow I've done ever - and that's saying a lot seeing that I've done a couple of 2k+ BTC escrows in this two months, and over 150+ regular escrows of varying amounts.

Aren't you glad I didn't ask you to escrow my group buy? I thought, maybe he's too busy or something. What I could do, if people have a trust issue, is verify my identity and creds with you, since you're just a border away from me. I was hoping the fact that I'm in the service (mil) and I also have physical locations for pick up, would encourage residents and aliens in the country.

I'll work through the paid list and update the spreadsheet first. I will revert the first post to the original if I still don't get any updates from OP in an hour.

I'm fairly sure that if he does not reopen this thread and stay true to his word, this whole thing is going to fall to pieces.

I will step in if that happens and handle distribution. Messaging JohnK right now to see about verifying my identity with him. If raginazn pulls through, great. But I'm not about to let this all fall apart.

You have my support as well. We are all adults here. John K and nebiz have done a great job in keeping things professional and friendly. I mean no offense to the OP, but we all have common interests here and there's no reason for this order not to happen.

And let wrenchmonkey send his coins for god's sake!
Note that my terms stay the same here - my responsibility for the funds stop at the point when the funds are in to Avalon.

I'm still hoping that this is resolved though - it would take a lot of PITA to see this fall apart. I'm sorry for Ataxx, but this has to be a first come first serve deal as stated in the OP.

I woke just now to this mess again.   Angry Why does the drama always take part when I'm absent?

My take on this:

As what I said last time, this is a first come first serve group buy due to the fact that people always seem to be pulling out in the last minute and delaying everything. Whoever's funds come first will get the space in hand, period.


Glad you are here. Could you unlock the thread please ?

1. ragingazn has no right to lock this
2. people will be misled and will not send money if it says we are closed! - also in the first post in red he mentioned we are closed - that needs to be removed as well!

At this point, given the series of incident, I would really like ryepdx to take over the shipment instead of ragingazn.
I'm trying to get in touch with him here to clarify this.

I agree with you and have my support

Mine as well. +1 for ryepdx

Can we get a general trajectory from everyone who hasn't read up on the current thread by noon pacific tomorrow?  That should be plenty of time for the world to respond to this series of events.

I have put together a list of key stakeholders, which I have defined as people who own more than 2% of the buy.  These people corresponded to 75% of the BTC stake last night.  If you are a key stakeholder and not on the list, let me know.  I used a spreadsheet which hasn't had cost updated for a day.

Key Stakeholders:  

RagingAzn628, Rallye, freeworm, alle.sello, sveetsnelda, aceat64, Bicknellski, Immuzikation, atcsecure, Egon, spinner, ryepdx, CoinHoarder, Kushedout, spanishfry, dserrano5, flowdab


ryepdx please campaign among these stakeholders by PM, not forum post, so we aren't gumming up new contributions to hit our goal. 

JohnK can we have a moratorium on the purchase until noon PST tomorrow if we hit our goal?

Can we all also discuss credentials that the receiver should have to provide to JohnK.

Wrenchmonkey, this is an endorsement to send the coins, regardless of OP. They will be in escrow for now.

We are now closed! Please stop sending btc! Ataxx has assured me 100% that he will send btc by Sunday!

We should be going according to the blockchain here - as per what we stated in the OP last time.
