SB's lack of communication is very painful at this point.
My only hope is that he's cooking up something amazing as a way forward and/or out.
He could at least pop onto the thread and tell us he's working on something, and that we could expect to hear from him in 24 hours... or a couple or days... or... ? Totally sucks being entirely in the dark and is below the level of service that he demonstrated early on.

At this point I'm assuming steamboat would rather assemble our boards than work out some kind of refund. So even if chips get refunded, steamboat should still be trying to broker a deal so the parts can be re-used on 2nd gen chips and those of us who already paid for assembly don't get left out in the cold.
I'd rather not assume though. I think it's high time for some kind of communication from dear leader steamboat.

I just want a freaking refund, I've just got chips and I'm pretty sure there's 9990 other chip owners who would like the same..I just wanna wash my hands clean of Yifu at this point as I'm sure many others do.
RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE

Unacceptable, steamboat is very much at fault here.
He's showing a continued disregard of his responsibilities, to say it with his own words.
It's been a week since I submitted my refund request, and I've heard nothing from it. Nothing at all.
We're still gathering people to pursue legal action if necessary.

Remember,its Y I FU's fault,not Steamboats guys 
I'm sure he's doing the best he can,hes got alot riding on this too.......................

This sucks , SB used to be so nice in the past ...
I do have to admit I'm beginning to feel a bit irritated with this ordeal
Taking a refund on the chips -5% and accepting the assembly costs as a loss are starting to cross my mind Would really just like the freaking K16's though *Shakes angry fist at Yifu*
At this point, even if he is working out a deal to obtain gen2 chips to still be able to utilize the assembly process. I still wouldn't take it. My options:
If chip refunds are supplied AND parts/assembly are not refundable then I say give me chip refund and send me my parts that I paid for -- since there is no refund. I wouldn't allow SB to keep the parts with no refund.

Maybe he's having the same problem as Yifu.
He has the Mafia following him and knocking on the door of people he knows/does business with.
Maybe we'll get a knock on our doors too...
Mafia dude: Hey, did you give a loan or buy stuff from some guy named Steamboat?
You : Well, umm...yeah, but the stuff never came from China.
Mafia dude: It will never come, sucka !! Cuz I broke his legs and stole his cash !

still would like to know about assembly refunds (if any) before committing to a chip refund
This sucks , SB used to be so nice in the past ...
I like how everyone criticizes SB but don't know whats going on. He said he will update us, and as he has done in the past, has updated us with substantial information each time.
I'd rather him give us updates as he has, instead of holding our hands 24/7 which means he is doing Nothing else but coddling us.
Im married, my wife can hold me when I decide to weep over this Yifu debacle.

Actually, I wouldn't characterize his latest updates as containing "substantial information". Rather, I feel they contain substantial lack of information in key areas, such as the status of refund requests and an update on his predatory "no assembly refunds" stance.
The fact that he's been going AT LEAST a week between updates does not help matters. I don't want to be coddled, I just want to be treated with respect, and given information in a timely manner.
It's nice for you that your wife comforts you when things go south. That in NO WAY mitigates SteamBoat's responsibility to his group buyers. Hopefully his wife will comfort HIM when this finally catches up to him.
I'm sick to death of waiting for responses from someone that has a shit load of this forums money! We beg for updates while SB does god knows what.
IT'S TIME FOR ANOTHER UPDATE, EVEN IF IT SAYS NOTHING!!!! WTF?!
I feel like a real fucking moron right now, thinking this was a community, and we're all in this together. What an idiot I am. I deserve to lose my money for trusting people like Yifuk and Steamroller.
I may have lost a few hundred bucks, but at least I have some time on my hands. I can be a real PIA when I decide to...
Steamboat,
It was been a week since your last post. Could you please provide an update, even if it's "Still waiting for Yifu to ship out the chips".
Thanks !

I have to agree with many here. SB and all other parties have no excuse for lack of communication in our digital world. It's not like you have a call list of 1000's of people to get in touch with. You have email and this forum. A mass email/group list can be created and 2 sentences take about 2 mins of your day to write. You obviously don't even have to reply to any further responses/questions form the recipients, as evidenced by EVERY ASIC company in existence.
I like how everyone criticizes SB but don't know whats going on. He said he will update us, and as he has done in the past, has updated us with substantial information each time.

I have stop asking for updates. Iam asking for chip refunds like other GB organizes has done already. I'd rather him give us updates as he has, instead of holding our hands 24/7 which means he is doing Nothing else but coddling us.

Don't be a douche. Read the terms of the OP, refunds aren't even a part of the original "deal."
He has an obligation as a group buy leader to provide updates. The original deal was the Yifu would ship chips weeks ago. Didn't happen. The deal has changed, Steamboat already committed to refunds. Even if we disregard his legal obligations, there's also a moral obligation to people. He's got over a million bucks of people's money tied up in these deals. He needs to man up and deal with it. He's already decided he's keeping 5% of our chip money (and who the hell knows HOW MUCH of the board money). Time for him to start EARNING that by dealing with his obligations.
What a tool.
And the comparison to Raginazn ("he's not QUITE as bad as that guy"). Sorry, but if Raginazn is the bar by which group buy leaders are measured, Steamboat's STILL not coming in above it by much, which is downright pathetic. Raginazn has clearly earned himself a scammer tag, Steamboat's cruizin' for it...
Grow a pair of balls, Steamboat, and deal with this shit!
Hey I'm talking about his continued disregard of his responsibilities and the fact that this is obv. not a priority for him.
