[Avalon Asic] trade-in Thread

[iCEBREAKER]

Another month passes, still no response from Yifu and still no scammer tag for the guy who stole our FPGAs.

Avalon turns One years old
What a roller coaster ride it has been

We went from the last to enter the ASIC mining market crowd-funded by the community to the first to shipping a consumer product in little over 4 month. On this journey, many mistakes were made, tons of things were learned and we will continue to grow as one of the groups to keep mining decentralized and support the DIY community. Those are our goals.

In the up coming week we will doing a clearance sale on the refunded chips as well as some mining units and modules to close generation one and move on to a pre-sale-less generation two of the Avalon Project.

Stay tuned as many more exciting news will be announced in the coming week.

wow now they even stopped to mention trade-ins in their newsletter

@team avalon
Perhaps you remember... We were part of the community which crowd-funded you in the first hour!
We have sent you our FPGAs half a year ago.
Now it's too late to keep your word.
But pls do the right thing and send your first hour supporter gen2 units
I still have not lost my complet confidence.
But not much more is missing. stopp sending newsletter, act!

They shouldn't even bother to send to send trade-in units as they are almost worthless at this point. What I think they should do is pay everyone that sent out their fpga units the dollar value of the units in btc terms.

wow 6 months already..

In April I sent Avalon $2000 in trade-in equipment.    6 months later... Yifu and Avalon have not honored trade-ins.   I will not be buying from Avalon again unless they come up with some sort of compensation.

[Bogart]

At this point they should just promptly ship 1 Avalon per trade-in board without asking for any additional payment.

That's the only way the participants will get any kind of significant reward now in exchange for their early support.

Yifu has yet to rectify this issue with people who sent trade-ins.

I'm out about 18 btc, not even including profits the icarus units could have generated.

Maybe we can count the number of fpga boards they stole from us and then try to get some form of and settlement and closure.

[yxt]

WTF!

I was really patient. I've been waiting for half a year
Now they have them in stock @avalon-asics.com, auction 500 units of @tradehill

And no single word here


[EDIT]
And then I have to read such bullshit:

Avalon have learned from previous mistakes and will not longer be participating in any pre-order type of transactions, all products on sale are already sitting in a bonded warehouse ready to ship within 48 hours of ordering.

WHERE IS YOUR FUCKING PROBLEM ?

They like to piss us off... didn't you get this by now ?

Yifu filled his pockets, chinese market is big enough for new products and the rest of the world get the leftovers from the old tech.

[yxt]

It seems as if I felt so special that I have not noticed it 

[server]

Yeah a real special feeling... I know what you mean
