[Group Buy#1] Avalon ASICs CHIPS! Using JohnK as escrow! FINISHED!

[John (John K.)]

Howdy sir,

I'm still a n00b so I'm unable to post to the thread, but here are the confirmation details for the coin I have sent in exchange for 15 chips:

Status: 5/unconfirmed, broadcast through 8 nodes
Date: 4/27/2013 10:03
To: Escrow-AvalonASIC 1At75rKd6e8b7S7AAPzZ5V3kAzhkGYhnpU
Debit: -1.23425 BTC
Transaction fee: -0.002 BTC
Net amount: -1.23625 BTC

Thanks!

Confirmed will update when I get to PC. Thanks!

[John (John K.)]

I have just sent 1 BTC
the transactionid is 46eb6f81d58e245789d05052a6b30e57ef3e65509a9e0c19a4f1376fd9d87951

I calculated from the chips that 1 btc is around 12 chips.
If there is any spare change from the btc, you may keep the spare change for good service.

Okay, will update when I get to PC. Thanks again

Thank You. If possible, could you PM me when its updated on the spreadsheet?

Will do, thanks. Placed in thread.

Also, my apologies for fueling some of the drama a couple hours earlier. I was worried about the state of the group buy and wanted to make sure there was a backup distributor in case people started requesting refunds on account of ragingazn closing the thread. I never intended for it to turn into a mutiny or anything. I personally have no quarrel with ragingazn. I just wanted to make sure this thing went through, as I have significant percentage of my Bitcoin holdings riding on this, and the way people were talking was making me nervous.

Nah, it's fine. It's good to be cautious in the bitcoin world, and your fears were substantiated.

[John (John K.)]

PS guys: The escrow fee is 1.5%.  

You deserve every bit of that, I think. Might want to up that rate for group buys in the future  

Yep, lesson learned. I usually hold >50 BTC tx's at 1.5%, Avalon preorders at 2% for the length of time. Any group buys will need 2.5% from now on, and even more so if I need to handle PM's, questions and even customer service requests.

realized i should have added 2 more chips than i did earlier. just sent over an additional 0.1599 BTC to cover them.

wish i had more to put down at the moment. still hoping for a transfer to clear in time to be able to grab another 32 chips tomorrow, but its looking like we'll be done pretty soon (not a bad thing, i guess.)

Hello,

My low post count has me not able put this in thread but I just sent in 9.25btc from 1F1jCDGQFZ5g78YiEX6xati4songvaVa5s

https://blockchain.info/tx/6ed69708467e908a3c9be677f8d227f83fd6e91880d153a2dce98c3f582728f1

if you could, update when you can

Thanks

Confirmed .

[John (John K.)]

Who, for the love of God, SENT BTC UNANNOUNCED AGAIN?
This tx scared me a ton and wasted 15 minutes of my life figuring out where on earth did I do wrong again:
https://blockchain.info/tx/f1bec5e8994b3178393f394b4c817789de585010f5f767ac1b6ed9f801a126ca

This is the second time now that someone sent such a tx - anyone who wants to claim this will have to sign a message with the input address.

Also, please post/PM your claims ASAP after sending in your funds. I'm going to charge a PITA fee to the next guy who sends funds without declaring it as I don't want to go through the thread and blockchain for another hour again. 

Hmm...

[John (John K.)]

All updated so far and it tallies up. (apart from the two unclaimed tx)

If the unclaimed transactions never get claimed, what are the plans?

I would think that we don't count them towards the total until they are signed, and then once we order chips if it's still not claimed it's used to help finance the shipping the chips to the individuals.

I would hold it for the moment and decide otherwise, but most probably it's going to be held untouched for 1 month first. 
This is such a time waster - I need to comb through my PM's, the posts in this thread and the blockchain when I find the total not tallying up.

As a  stake holder with a few BTC in I'd simply like everyone to listen to the escrow provider.

1. Refuckinglax take deep breath and stay the course.
2. First come first serve.
3. Ragin is the OP he brought me and you to the dance no one else!
4. Stop stiring the pot with deadlines we will order soon enough.
5. Dont PM or  Email to change this arrangement again.
6. Read number one.
7. If Attaxx wants some of my chips up to 200 I'll sell only to him.

Can we now relax be patient and simply get this done in the next few days? No more DRAMA queens please.!

This x 1000!

Thank you!

Guys I have been 100% compliant to gain people's trust and to make them relax and relieve some pressure and to put faith in me.

I did not have to provide any proof of my location but I did it anyway immediately just because one person asked so I delivered!

As far as shipping goes as soon as the order is placed I will start taking down names and address. Buying shipping supplies and estimating the costs for everyone.

Keep in mind that I have experience handling shipment and packaging items because I used to sell on ebay.

I also think its fair to weight in how quickly your package will get packed and how soon you get tracking info will depend on how soon you sent BTC to escrow and how much stake you have.

With that in mind guys we are doing hella great so far! Almost there! Don't give up! There's nothing o be worried about! Johnk has all my info and can come to abduct me anytime in the night! :p

I just received a few pm about someone who sent payment I will check with them again and johnk bc they could not post in thread

If someone has sent PM's confirming to you please post them here or forward to me - I'm having panic attacks when another unclaimed tx arises.

[John (John K.)]

Found the 15 BTC tx - apparently the owner wants to stay anon and only PM'ed OP about that.

[erschiessen]

FIFO seems fair.
I don't particularly care for folks with larger orders getting preferential treatmeant.
If I shop for a Pickup at my local dealer and the sales rep leaves me to deal with the guy walking in the Cadillac isle, I would leave.
At the grocery, folks with stuffed carts don't bump in line.
