Doubtful.  Either we will get an update about a delay, or people will start getting units like its Christmas in March.

I wonder why they mentioned 2 weeks. What is special about 2 weeks?

Does this mean they are seeking certification to do exports properly?

(A long time ago, they mentioned that CE certification would take like 2 weeks when I brought it up on the forum)

Maybe for bulk, but these things are like unicorns, customs wouldn't have any idea what they are. Could just mark them as virtually any electronic doodad and it would sail through if the valuation was right.

They really need to offload customer service to someone as they're too busy to perform even the most basic levels of support. I have infinitely more confidence in the Avalon team than I do their competition, but the lack of communication is again getting silly.

I remember when they said they shipped 50+ in the end of January....  Still no evidence of that.

for the short of memory:

emphatically agree. not sure why they want to purposefully tarnish their reputation if they're legitimately trying to create a business out of this.

I was talking about fundamental levels of customer support, like acknowledgment of orders, confirming shipping addresses, and the like. Stuff that makes paying customers very uneasy when they're left hanging. I don't need to be told if they got a new toy to analyze their chips or that they think they're better than their competition because ______, but I do need to know if they've received my payment and have my shipping address correct. Because I ordered a batch 2 unit before they fixed their ordering problems I still do not have an order number TWENTY FIVE DAYS AFTER ORDERING. It's not the least bit comfortable.

Seems like they "talked" about having shipped lots of units (at least 40 + 53). Show me.

OK, we can pretty sure that they did not ship 50+ miner one month ago. Yifu seems was lying about the shipping status.

Dishonesty seems to be a pre-requisite for ASIC vendors...unfortunately.

It's pretty annoying that Yifu's last activity shows him as online 5 minutes ago and yet no updates on the shipping of Avalon units have been posted.  Bad news would be better than no news.  Avoiding the question just makes businesses look sketchy.

Being first to market is pretty meaningless if you can't actually get units into the hands of those who've ordered.

All I can say is that this is Bitcoin. I don't believe it until I see six confirmations.

Bitsyncomguy: units are all shipped, you will receive them in 3 weeks top. No tracking, I'm sorry.

(I'm trolling but that's the update I'm excepting)

My anger against what is wrong in the Bitcoin community is productive:
Bitcointa.lk - Replace "Bitcointalk.org" with "Bitcointa.lk" in this url to see how this page looks like on a proper forum (Announcement Thread)
Hashfast.org - Wiki for screwed customers

Let me see if I have this right. They have no time to pen because they are too busy assembling, but have time to read several times daily.

Since he didn't say squat, I assume he's just torturing Batch 1 just to surprise the customers.. Kinda like how Satoshi dice 0 will scare you with a monkey.

It seemed like a good idea at the time.
