I'm not trying to be too harsh on TH, but they pretty-much changed their story with every update. They never wanted to reveal the full details of anything and instead tried to paint things over a bit. From the lack of activity in this forum, it seems like a lot of people already got out of their purchase a while ago. There are about less than 10 different people who post here.

Terrahash may want to consider sticking with 20,000 Gen1 chips and defer the purchase of another 20,000 chips unless they can get their hands on the Gen1 chips within the next two weeks.

If the 55 nm chips are 4-5 times faster and use less power then the 110 nm chips, I maybe willing to wait until October or November for my order if it was upgraded to Gen2 chips. It sounds like there is a good chance Gen2 chips will work with the K16 with little to no modification.

Perhaps Avalon and Terrahash can offer Gen1 purchasers the opportunity to switch their order to Gen2 chips at no extra charge...

Of course, this all assumes that Avalon can actually ship Gen2 chips in bulk by mid October, which is highly unlikely given their current track record.

Why would you even consider Avalon over Bitfury for 55nm chips?!

Because Terrahash already has parts to assemble klondike miners. You can't put BitFury chips on a klondike board.

uh... where were u all week? Terrahash confessed to not have ANYTHING in place...


thats a huge misrepresentation of what they said
Its a bit of a misrepresentation of what they said.

guys, back to the issue here: CUSTOMS

Will the chips be confiscated by customs?  How long will it take customs to process the chips and ship them out?  Which customs are they at? China or United States?  What routes must the chips take, lets say the chips leave customs monday, how long best case for us to get the chips and whats a realistic worst case scenario?  Who all thinks that our group buys will get the chips before sept 1st?

We don't have any of this information.

No one cares about backwards Europe who still believes in the divine right of kings. Europe is a sludge hole of collectivist and politically-correct filth. Come over here and get Piers Morgan while your at it.

The last part I will agree with you on, keep him, we don't f**king what that slimeball back. He is possibly the most hated individual in the UK, god know who, or why,or how much has been spent to convince the US he should be given airtime, of for that matter, air.

No integrity whatsoever. Kind of like an ex-Lehman's bond seller.

Let the discussion of the Avalon Refund commence!

Someone is discussing the possibility of having Avalon ship us the Gen 2 chips instead but that would require extra work from guys like BKK, although the chips are supposedly very similar in design.


Have you got a source from where this is being discussed? I'd happily take gen 2 chips!

BitSyncom / Avalon,

Rather than ship out over a million Gen1 chips that will be sure losers if they aren't received by buyers in the next 2-4 weeks, why don't you offer Gen1 chip buyers the opportunity to upgrade to Gen2 chips at no extra charge?

Assuming Gen2 chips offer 4-5 times the performance and lower power consumption compared to Gen1 chips, this seems like a win/win situation for both Avalon and buyers.

Also, it sounds as if Gen2 chips will work with existing designs with little to no modification necessary.

Of course, this is also contingent on you being able to deliver Gen2 chips in October.
People have already spent 100s of hours designing boards and ordering parts for these chips.

ppl are fast getting sick of this chinky cunt,
wouldnt be surprised if a group buy on silk road puts his head on a spike very soon.


No need to lower yourself to talks of racism and violence, Avalon will get what they deserve based on the lack of trust..
Nothing about that comment is  may not have been the group purchasers or it may be the purchasers just not in the time-frame they were expecting.

The phrase "chinky" is not racist !!?
No. Using a word to describe someone, no matter how offensive is not equivalent to racism. Racism involves the belief that certain people are inferior on the level of rights, abilities, etc. simply because they are of a particular race and without any other justification. Calling a Chinese person a chink may be offensive to some people but it is not racism. I suppose your school teacher told you otherwise. I have noticed this a lot with the generations who were born in the mid-late 80s and beyond. You all have been told this is racism, it is not. Lift yourself up out of the brainwashing. Name-calling D.N.E. Racism.

Apparently it's open to interpretation, as in Scotland it's considered a racist term, and certainly the Chinese consider it so.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinky
That is not what racism is, dude. Sorry. It doesn't matter that a few people think it is racist ("indirectly racist", Wiki claims), there are definitions of words and logic. Just because you find a million people who think the sky is yellow doesn't all of a sudden make the color of the sky open to interpretation. Racism has always been about superiority or inferiority due to "race". Unless someone believes that no amount of using a word can make them racist. a word is just a word.

Amazingly, when I'm called a lugan, I'm not offended. Yet, if I were black and somebody called me a nigger, I would be, but it'll be okay for me to call one of "brothers" a nigger. Go figure!

This thread will be about cats in 5...4...3...
Finally, a thinker. I don't know what you think about me but I'm glad there are a few people on these forums that think. I get into these rants to separate the wheat from the chaff. You don't really know who anyone is until you push them up against the wall.

We have to do something about this... we can't be like the simpletons who sit around waiting on BFL for months. We need to "hold Yifu's feet to the fire" or he is just going to pull the same shady crap again.

Chinky is the adjectival form of chink and, like chink, is a highly offensive ethnic slur for Chinese and other Asian people.[2]

After several campaigns by the Scottish Executive, more people in Scotland now acknowledge that this name is indirectly racist.[3]

You're an idiot. It doesn't matter what some people think. Just because someone is offended by a word doesn't qualify it as racism. I mean, WTF don't you understand? What is and isn't racism isn't open to a god damned poll. You people on these forums are fucking dense, no wonder no one knows where the Avalon chips are.

Lets see if we can get this to sink in...

You are just as much a shill as the others. I don't need to hear from your old ass what I should be doing.

Why do we need to be careful? So at what point does it become OK to mapout these conspiracies? You sound like G W Bush when he spoke about 911 at the UN regarding "not tolerating outrageous conspiracy theories".
You need to calm down, and check the editing on your quotes.  It's not clear from it whether you were directing you comment at me, or at MinerManNC

Regarding the bolded part of your analysis, I'm going to suggest a little homework for you:  the concept of False Equivalence.  (Which, ironically, was used a lot by the Bush White House). There'll be a pop quiz later in the thread.
I quoted MinermanMC. But since you initially made the statement he bolded then that part applies to you as well. I don't have time or purpose to look up false equivalence.

Because he and others are "in" on the "delay". Over in the TH thread, the only two guys who are trying to deter talk are the guys who visited TH to prove to us they were legit. This same thing was noticed in another operation - that those who visited the site were trying to defend the "business" who was not delivering on their promise.
We need to be careful before we start to map out huge conspiracies involving members of the community.  

It's human nature to defend something that someone has grown close to, or something someone has come to support.  

Examples are everywhere, with each vendor.   In most every case, there are real vested-interest shills, and then there are those who are simply vested psychologically, or emotionally, in a vendor or product.
We need to be careful before we start to map out huge conspiracies involving members of the community.

This is very true. Lets not let the Yifu delays turn everyone in here against each other. We all want the same thing in the end,,our chips, and Im sure Th and all the others want that as well. They all have out of pocket money invested as well.

The thing that's stopping me from asking for a refund is the collateral damage it might cause to Steamboat. I've already paid for chips and assembly and know that Steamboat has already spent money to acquire components in good faith.

 How can I ask for a refund under those circumstances, knowing that Steamboat is completely blameless for Avalon not following through ?

 It's not an easily rectifiable situation.

... IF steamboat can show that they did EVERYTHING but failed due to avalon... yes

if they cant show that... steamboat scammed ya

Steamboat is really working on miners for someone because I did CFD analysis on his heatsink. He wouldn't have had that done if it was all just a scam to take money and not deliver something to someone, at least. That someone may not have been the group purchasers or it may be the purchasers just not in the time-frame they were expecting.
That's what scammers do... come up with excuses... one after the next... then poof dissappear...

But this was done between me and Steamboat. I don't think anyone else even knew about it and I am not in his group buy. So, he had no need to make me believe he was producing something that he actually was not. He was/is producing something.

I may have to do with over-run corruption, it could be part of a number of chips BitSynCom paid to organized crime, it could be part of a genuine early shipment bought and paid for.  

All that's clear is that Avalon chips are rapidly commoditizing.

IF Yifu is dealing with some organized crime to make deals to get these chips made, that may be why he doesn't want to say much because he would then possibly be investigated and arrested.

What a load of BS, since when does a late shipment qualify as stealing?

Since when he is not allowed to engage in legal actions?

I starting to notice that you and others participants are trying to deter people to undertake legitimate ways to compensate their loss.

So, explain to us, why are you and others criticizing people which is trying to find a way to enforce their side of the agreement?
Because he and others are "in" on the "delay". Over in the TH thread, the only two guys who are trying to deter talk are the guys who visited TH to prove to us they were legit.

You will get your miner, you will just get it so late that the other guys who planned this whole thing will benefit greatly from your delay and you will never see the returns you should have. they have already planned to obsolete you with the gen 2 offerings so that your hashing will be like a flea bite relative to their new miners they purchase with their "profits". They are too smart to totally directly f you over.

Here you are
1. I have at risk many of my friends funds, I have my name and face at risk. I've done a mining farm project for people I know IRL.
I introduced Bitcoin to them(most of them don't have wallets yet), I spend a lot of time explaining everything and gaining their trust.
feel free to take a look, quickly jump through those pages

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Aq4YXCoAvifBdGRRSk02NkZtM1FrbHN0elIwZ0t2SlE#gid=1

2. I don't make any projections, I am not a greedy person. But if someone is stealing from me, by not allowing me to even gain back what I initially invested then something is clearly wrong.

3. Easy game: noticing authorities, hiring lawyer, request refund in law manner, yifu with huge fine or behind bars with Pirateat40, new bitsyncom investor noticed about shady practices breaks the deal, Yifu stuck with outdated 40nm chips, no money and a trial.
That's what he should get for stealing from bitcoin community. For all those lies, shipping delays, alibaba chips, refund delays, calculating price based on ROI and not delivering in promised time. I still  can't understand how 1 person could scam so many people and get away with it.

He should be buried in every possible way,there is no place to show who is better person now.
For me if someone screws you and you do nothing you are either spineless or Jesus.

What a load of BS, since when does a late shipment qualify as stealing?


Because of the inherent time-sensitive nature of what we are ordering. Getting your chips late is like not getting them at all since their entire practical use is time-dependent. Its like selling someone some eggs, having them pay for the upfront and delivering them when they are rotten. You just stole their money. People bought on the assumption they would have been delivered by now.

Where are all the wuss-bags who put in on these group orders? We have heard from like 20 people on this thread - there should be hundreds.
