[Avalon Asic] trade-in Thread

[allinvain]

still no trade-in

Did you guys make sure to include your contact info (e-mail address associated with your store account) when you sent in the fpgas?

Of course.  Note inside the package listing email and mailing address, + phone number.
I had it confirmed with Mr. Chen.  He asked for my email address and verified my package.  There were about 40 people before me.

Sorry to hear that. I guess you'll have to wait a bit while Yifu gets around to looking at your issue. But, look on the bright side, the ball is rolling and we should be getting our "money printing machines" soon.

mmm, that's odd guys, I'm pretty sure rudrigorc and allinvain should have gotten emails, I remember sending about 50% of them before having to run off to another meeting earlier today.

care to check store / emails?

also yes, trade-ins are batch #2 prices, so $1600 at current exchange rate. I think the number used was 17.2-17.4ish

Quick question for you. I just finished paying for my order and it's already got 6 confirmations. So my question is, does the order status page get updated automatically or does someone have to manually go in there and confirm that payment has been received?

You mean it says "Trade-in-on-hold" So is mine, but if you click on VIEW (the view button) it should give you a payment address. You should also have received an e-mail that says "a new note has been added..." which will also ask you to pay 17.4 x (x) - x being the number of units you have - to a unique btc address (just for your order).

went to bed after getting the newsletter and hoped for an email when waking up
but there was none  

[tucenaber]

they are working on it, something just changed in my order status


about the price, what do you guys think? I still hope for 60 BTC or less  .

Yifu said it was batch 2 pricing so, $1299 for Icarus, $1199 for Lancelots trade-ins.

Hmm, I just logged into my store account and saw an order for the trade-in! Wohoo. I don't know why there is an error in the pricing, but if you click on view order it should show the proper pricing.

The price is 17.4 BTC per unit, which equates to $1600 as of right now  (price is at $92)

No email yet, but there is an trade-in order on hold in the avalon store when I log in. Yay! The price says 78 BTC though Does your status really say 17.4 BTC?

Same here, for now the only clickable thing goes to this: http://store.avalon-asics.com/?product=avalon-asic-unit-trade-in-2

Still waiting this email, the closed ticket is open again.

Give it time. Yifu said he said he sent out 50% of the e-mails. Read this:

Conclusion: please be patient guys...

Well as long as you see the order then it's all good. Click on the VIEW button and it should tell you the price you should pay and also give you a BTC address to send the payment to. As far as the 78 BTC, that's an error. What is happening is the store is using the current batch 3 pricing  (75 BTC). Disregard it. Just click on the VIEW button and it will show you the true price which should be 17.4 per unit.

Well, there is obviously an error since Bitsyncom has confirmed the batch #2 pricing, but even the order details show the high price. It seems yours and mine are different. It doesn't really matter.

Tucenaber, we are in the same situation.

But it IS at batch 2 pricing. Guys, I fail to see why you're not understanding what I'm saying. I guess I will repeat myself once again for the last time. So here it goes. Even if it shows the high pricing both on the main orders page and when you view the details of a specific order it does NOT mean that you are required to pay that price. On the details page it should say something like:

"Order updates:

1.Friday 12th of July 2013, 03:15am
please pay 17.4 x 1 bitcoins to..."

Now on the other hand if you're saying that you don't have anything that says "order updates" and it just shows a high price in btc then there is something else going on. Most likely Yifu hasn't gotten around to updating your order.

[tucenaber]

"Order updates:

1.Friday 12th of July 2013, 03:15am
please pay 17.4 x 1 bitcoins to..."

Nothing like this on my order page. It will be udated later I suppose.

Anyway, I can't believe this is finally happening We have been waiting a long time for this and I had almost given up hope.

[dylan186]

No email yet,still waiting.I send fpga three months ago.

[ailikun]

Same here...
Still nothing.

But i guess, it should take some time.

Hope, they will send all emails by the end of the day.

I guess, waiting time is almost over, we have to be patient, just a little bit more)

[tucenaber]

Regarding the final price.

also yes, trade-ins are batch #2 prices, so $1600 at current exchange rate. I think the number used was 17.2-17.4ish

Bitsyncom, I'm really happy that we have finally reached this point and I believe that your job is not an easy one and mostly thankless too, but since you according to your own statement is a man bound by his word, do I really have to remind you of the original terms? The actual deal at the time was $1500 minus the rebate (300 or 400). Remember, we all sent in perfectly good and still profitable boards three months ago believing that those terms would be upheld.

You are paying like 1/4 of #2 price (in BTC terms) and you complain ? :/

Don't worry bro, you'll make that $1500 back within 10 days (with 1 miner). That kind of quick return should be borderline illegal

[Raize]

Hey guys,
I think BitSynCom and his team might have gotten a few of the emails wrong or they may be going to spam? Here's the weird part. I see the trade-in link in the store, but did not get an email.

Here's the problem with the store, though. It tells me to send 17 * the number of Icarus trade-ins to an address, but then the Store page itself says something more like 78 * the number of Icarus trade-ins. It's weird.

EDIT: Whoops, just realized you guys have already noticed this, too. I'm going to try adding to one of my open tickets to make sure support confirms I should send X amount to the address.
