[ANN] Avalon ASIC Batch #2 Sales Update (Last Updated 2013-02-12 17:56 EST)

[szuetam]

OP Updated with new information

[Update 2013-02-03 3:03 EST]

All orders which have paid the full and proper amount for each Avalon unit will be honored. This means if your order said 0.05BTC and you later paid the correct amount (~75BTC) that your order will be fulfilled. Please create a support ticket with Avalon to confirm your order details with them personally. The remaining Avalon units will be going on sale tomorrow.

Yes, when exactly?

Also, does "tomorrow" mean Sunday the 3rd or Monday the 4th?

All orders for incorrect amounts will be fully refunded.

WalletBit will return these funds to the Bitcoin addresses they were sent from. These units will be restored to the sales queue. At a time of Avalon's choosing they will re-open sales for these remaining units. All orders processed at the correct exchange rate will still be honored.

This doesn't make sense though.

The people who paid the incorrect amounts did so to submit the order, as that was their only option.

Why not keep the orders and simply send a new payment request for each order, this is very easy to do and honors the transaction.

It was out of people's control on who recieved a correct payment page, and who received and incorrect payment page.

this

this indeed

By that logic so If the bug was not $1, but $10000 you guys would've still paid?

Again: there's no such thing as placeholder order

It was a bug and it will be refunded, and orders will open again in the future for those who did not manage to place an proper order.

this is final.

Final eh...you mean for a few hours? Just outsource your sales guys, you plainly have no idea what you're doing. I've been ready with funds in hand for two of your sales, spent hours moving funds around and TRYING to order and still have nothing. Now you're rewarding those that sent bitcents...swell.

Your broken website is allowing me to add products right now then saying there are none btw.

Woohoo!  Order succcess!

If you register for an Avalon Store (wordpress) account, and login, you can avoid the session/token issues.  At least it worked for me.

I'd make an account anyway for order tracking purposes.

I also used a walletbit account, not "guest pay".

Still no email.  

Why on earth does walletbit not have a transaction history?

Edit: Oh, they do.  If you scroll down on the "Dashboard" page.

Worked for me also that way.. but i did guest pay.. went just fine

[wknight]

I did notice i could only purchase 1.. which is fine with me..

[mtbitcoin]

Managed to put in an order at last, hopefully this does not end like another bAsic.

Anyone get a confirmation email though?

[organofcorti]

I had no luck at http://launch.avalon-asics.com, still had a "wait" icon when I pressed the purchase button.

However, when I used http://shop-avalon-asic.pagodabox.com/?wpsc-product=avalon-asic-unit, the shopping cart did not "oops". The WalletBit portion of the excercise went fine, although he purchase page could do with more explanations for guest payers.

Now waiting on purchase confirmation email.

Have you tried creating an account on the store.avalon-asics.com page first before placing your order? I tried and it went through quite easily but no confirmation email yet though

.... the shopping cart did not "oops".

I finally have a smileyface.

Edit: to answer your question, yes I did.

[darkip]

Just did 2 orders (as the shopping cart would only allow 1 per order). Hopefully this is OK?

I am assuming yes as it didn't say 1 per household.

[Keninishna]
