Agreed; but the combination of no updates + suspended website that was destined to be our order site is starting to make me consider selling my chips from this group buy. |

Hmm.. Avalon's still not giving me any updates yet here too. I'll PM raging and ask him to pop up for an update. Attached is a screenshot of my current Avalon store account.... Edit: Old screenshot does not show all orders as this one was the first.  |

I'm starting to get a little nervous about this.
Raging did you get the sample chips out of customs? Is Neo-ASICs still on, or is that venture dead?
Raging, we need you to update this thread regularly. You told us that this group buy was supposed to be a way for you to re-establish credibility.

I didn't realize his credibility was ever questioned. |

I didn't realize his credibility was ever questioned. I know, right? I wonder how much his downpayment was on his new house... |

Neo-ASICs is clearly dead. Other groups have already started making boards (mine has, at least), and Neo-ASICs doesn't even have prices or sign-ups yet. I wouldn't panic about the chips. As long as he ships immediately on receipt of the chips, I'll be happy. He did say earlier that he's been busy and trying to get everything in order so he can focus on the chips. Basically: everyone calm down and make sure your plan is in place for having your chips assembled. |

My assembly service is currently closed to new orders, but I may do another batch if it turns out there's enough interest.

Oops, just realized that the Avalon store site does not show all orders even if I press 'View Order Page'. I've manually inputted the order number to show the actual order now, and updated the screenshot. It should be April 27th. |

Pitchforks and Tar not needed yet.
We are all on edge let us try and be patient. No one yet has received group batch orders even from earlier buys.
Pins and needles time.
Hope all is well with his family. Also I think it would be prudent to get updated info John K on Raginazins current location / residence just in case it is necessary. If that is part of the escrow service... just asking about it not demanding. Your thoughts John?

If he's willing to share them of course I would be willing to store the data of course. Personally, I think that wouldn't be really relevant here as the chips are being sent to the address I verified back then though. |

So...
We've got an unresponsive group buy leader, whose sample chips still haven't arrived (even though other group buys have had sample chips for weeks), who was supposed to be running an assembly service whose website account is now suspended, who is moving to a new location of which the escrow service is unaware.
Tell me again why I shouldn't be a little sketched out?

+1 I practically want to vote a new group buy organizer if possible. |

Sigh. I was planning on using NEO-ASICS for assembly. Can anyone point me to the current best option to get in line for US assembly? We need to make sure the chips get delivered to a verified address, that seems to be the top priority right now.

I'm now planning to use steamboat's assembly and fervently hoping that Raging still delivers chips instead of just disappearing into the ether. |
