JohnK - can you investigate who this "Gary" is and get his number / confirm current situation? If a guy that appears out of the blue can get in touch by phone and get a status update, surely you would be able to get in touch too to appease the crowds/verify the info?
To raging/friend: it is in your best interest to have JohnK/Ryepdx verify how/who you get in touch with from Avalon/Gary (Who is this guy?). This buy appears more and more like a scam, particularly due to you being the only ones able to get updates (despite a lot of folks trying to)
The Gary mentioned here has a sf-express.com email address as given by ragingazn to me not long ago, which is the company involved in sending the chips. (it's a courier service based in China) I'm currently drafting an email to him to get the situation clear here. John, Can this Gary fellow help us change the destination address, or will we need to contact Yifu directly?

Hey guys, I'm here right now, meeting with prodigits7 in Boston, MA. We're currently discussing NEO-ASICs logistics information and about shipping orders. The great news is that we can start shipping out right away, as soon as the chips arrive, so there's no lag time or delays in getting these units out to everybody that wants them. He's helping me get through everything right now, including this chip situation as well as my depression which has been very hard on me. So it's good to have support and somebody else that can help out as much as he can. Also JohnK or any other moderators can confirm my current location by checking the IP address of this post. I'm sorry again for not getting back sooner but you will be hearing from me much more often and more frequently on here. I'm gonna try to post everyday on the Blog section of NEO-ASICs website as well. You can find that here: http://neo-asics.com/blog/

has anyone got refunded by paypal yet? i sent him pms and emails but there is no refund yet so far. i am really worried because there are only a few days left until paypal's 45 days limitation is passed. i understand most of you guys paid him with btc and are in more precarious situation than i am but i just feel that i am alone since i could not join the claims group. i don't know what to do now. should i claim a dispute citing this thread as a proof or as a unauthorized transaction? can anyone please tell me what to do?
by the way, he gave me two paypal addresses with different names for group buy. i could not send to the first one because it says the account is limited. i should had known something was very fishy back then but i was too muddleheaded and sent $400 to the second paypal address he gave me. i am not allowed to give personal information here so i will just mention first 2 initials of that account owner name. first name starts with "St" and last name starts with "Li".

Hi, I would like warn about neo-asics.com . They have been in contact with me for several weeks wanting to buy parts for several Avalon clones. They bought a kit with a few chips and payed, no problems, I shipped to their company address, they signed for it and sent back a photo of the setup. I have given them at least two weeks to pay for the parts, but they only give me exuses. I can't give them any more time now, they are welcome to give a public explanation on how they are conducting their business. I have not shipped the parts, so they have nothing to sell. The video is of my unit in my office, here is the original video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svQBsIAZ-ssThe original images: http://imgur.com/a/613HKBest regards, Johan

John K. should keep an eye on the order status and try to get it re-routed anywhere else when it ships imo.

Sorry to see this is unraveling, though it's not surprising. I doubt John K can do anything about the situation because Avalon is so unresponsive. Maybe Ragin will do the right thing.

Did somebody yell, "Dogpile!" ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) I'm sure people here appreciate that you're keeping us informed about what's happening between you and Raging in your thread. But I think we here are grownup enough to come to our own opinions, thank you very much.

Honestly, all of this is making me nervous as well. I'd like to hear what ragingazn has to say about this latest development. If there's any way I can take some responsibility for the outcome of this, I will gladly do so. Can I at least call customs to verify the story about what happened to the sample chips for myself? Could I get a tracking number for the chips so I can keep people updated on where they are? Raging, I'll gladly do whatever I can to help this group buy out. It's apparent that replying to questions in this thread is not your strong suit. Seriously, give me a chance to help out and I'll be all over it.

talking to neo-asics via skype now
Let us know what you find out. The gist he said to me: Neo-asics (aka prodigits7) is in the boston area and raging is in CT. They met recently to try to get this figured out, raging has no assembly experience and his just trying to collaborate to get them made, which is why he originally contacted prodigits. It is my understanding that neo-asics.com is all prodigits responsibility. raging showed prodigits his paypal and his knc order in person when they met. prodigits also said that raging did indeed seem to be depressed over his family matter. Raging paid for and got parts for an avalon clone which prodigits made, ragingazn hasn't contacted strombom since his hiatus and prodigits says he wishes to pay for whatever is owed and source more parts. prodigits has a factory to make the units in northern mass. prodigits said he will trying to figure out what is going on at customs with the sample chips and is meeting someone wednesday to figure it out. Prodigits said the reason the site was down for a while was because it was hosted for free on service by ragingazn. since azn let it expire, prodigits offered to move the site to his own server, which he did. Prodigits will be in the New york city area in the near future and wishes to talk to whoever is worried about this in person and he is trying to get raging to come with him. prodigits is also trying to call john k about the same matter and wants to assure everyone that john has both of their personal info and are simply trying to fix the situation and will consider any solution. I suggested that I go to raging's house and personally ship the chips to whomever wants to run the shipping leg of this and he was extremely open to that suggestion. He also wants to reiterate that he is not a copycat of raging and is simply trying to mediate the situation. If I forgot anything, please post here and I will call him back later to ask him if he doesn't respond here. thanks.

For those who are worried about my other group buy...
I just sent JohnK my KNC account and password so he can log on and verify all the orders.
I am here to stay and I am not worried about anything and you guys shouldn't be either.
