EXACTLY,

Marto can I pretty please have a status on my order KKCKPSKWR

My Order is ~3 months late as well. Marto told me 3 weeks. His site says product is in stock, he then says, no there's a queue that must be filled for this batch to be produced & thats after he said, your units are in assembly. All the while PM's and emails go unanswered while at the same time you get emails & new threads about new products when your month late 2 months late order hasn't been updated since you paid.

FYI this is absolutely how service providers are NOT supposed to act.

If you feel compelled to order from Technobit do your self a huge favor and use Paypal. Its a damn shame that Marto's customers have to sit and wait or chase him on the forums to get what they paid for. Is Marto a talented EE, Yes he is. Does that excuse the fact that Marto is running his business like a slum lord, No it doesn't.  

I have an order that has yet to be fulfilled by Marto & team. 3 months late on a supposed 3 week turnaround.
No matter the situation or how the customer acts his message above demonstrates his customer service. I haven't cursed Marto/Technobit, He still ignores me, And when he does say something in regard to my or other orders that are just as late or later (going on 4 months for some) than mine it ends up being a broken promise. As far as I'm concerned my money is gone, the worst part is that Marto has wasted my time. No one should have to follow him around on the forum to get the equipment that they paid for within a time frame that Marto himself has set for delivery.

Bicknellski, I wish I knew about the hive project before I sent my chips to Marto/Technobit. He's a seemingly awesome EE, but he definitely needs help on the business front.

For sale

4 ASIC miner cubes Cubes have been in use for slightly over a month. Originally bought 6, I'm selling to make way
for new hardware. Boxes hash @ 30-33 GHZ no x's I have run two of them on high but one switched back to low the
other blew a fuse that I had to replace (I'm keeping these two) otherwise they have been work horses.

Items will be shipped from the US

Per piece price is .35 each + shipping
the Lot price is .32 each  + shipping

Buyer will be required to send printable shipping label to me. International orders will be
entertained but will more then likely cost a bit more due to any additional export paperwork

Reputable escrow accepted/encouraged at buyers expense.

Thanks



*edited for clarity and img shenanigans

I just left Marto some negative feedback as well.

Marto/Technobit Seems to have been a good place to buy from in the past as some customers have received their orders but his recent actions totally negate his past accomplishments. He is taking payments for products which he plans to deliver late or worst not at all.
I have an order that has been open from 10/2013 that he still hasn't delivered. 3 MONTHS LATE ON A 3 WEEK DELIVERY TIMEFRAME! They're are even orders from 9/2013 which he still hasn't delivered DO NOT SEND THEM YOUR COINS!!!

READ PAGES 31-39 for his excuse pattern https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=212031.600


OP is correct "In short; STAY AWAY FROM TECHNOBITS; THEY WILL EITHER STRAIGHT UP STEAL YOUR MONEY, OR SEND YOU A MINER MONTHS AFTER ITS EXPECTED AND NO WHERE NEAR ROI"

SMH this sucks....
 

No update to mines either....

Bitsta,

I'm sure a few people will be in contact with order numbers 3+ months late on delivery very soon.

MARTO!!!!

I WANT MY MINERS OR MY MONEY BACK FOR THE UNITS I PURCHASED TO INCLUDE COMPENSATION THE 480 CHIPS I SENT TO POPULATE THEM

FandangledGizmo, an excellent post & reference link. I'll be sure to point anyone I know thats just getting into bitcoin
to it as a mandatory discussion piece.

Same here, no info. I'm happy someone got some their miners. IDK what Marto & team are doing,
but his actions ,or lack of actions, are showing a total disrespect for his customer base.

Well I'm finding that the cubes are finicky with power supplies and I know for a fact that they're finicky if you have android phones or tablets ect on the same network. Be sure not to overlook that when troubleshooting.

Thanks for the info. The fuses all say 30 on them. I only have an issue with one cube. Has anyone been able to get a replacement controller board? The way this thing looks I'll probably need one

The other cubes that I have are humming along fine (low setting)
may have to reinvest in some of those 850 corsairs to run at high though

 

Anyone have any experience with these power supplies & the cubes?

I had a melted/exploded fuse==now damaged unit on one cube, running 2 cubes on high off one powersupply. The other cube
will run on high but will just fall back to low. 

Thanks

Additionally the site should have clearly stated that orders would be produced only once a certain number of orders
were received and have some sort of metric by which the customer could make an informed decision. I feel misled/lied to as well.
I'm curious by the way what is the minimum batch number that is/was needed?   

No word other than the thread update. This is ridiculous, it always the same with asic hardware orders
the world is promised up front but after the currency changes hands its delay after delay and  the customers
constantly needing to pry info from the manufacturing party. Marto I believe you guys have the best hardware
design for Avalon 1st gen chips but this technical achievement is totally offset but your inability to execute to
a schedule that you've set for yourselves. Not to forget the lackluster updates about the status of the build no matter
the problem. For example I'm sure I've received more email about new products released after my order than any
info actually pertaining to my order. Really,Wtf? And I hope that the shipping issues with speedy are sorted out
because late shipping on top of late completion of product would be totally unacceptable.

   

Marto,

Still waiting on my order as well.

Canary,

You'll need a label per unit correct?

Thanks

Nice work! I would have been in about this position had everything gone as planned. But this is assuming that  all 16 chips
hashing per board last I heard/read this wasn't the case or was that fixed? Ether way, Seeing that it would still be possible to achieve ROI this late
in the game is awesome. If Avalon didn't drop the ball everyone involved would have made a nice chunk of change. Hopefully some or most of the remaining hardware can be put towards a bitfury or other chip venture as I'm totally jaded by this Avalon mess.

P.S. Keep up the good work with refunds ect Steamboat!
