ppl are fast getting sick of this chinky cunt, wouldnt be surprised if a group buy on silk road puts his head on a spike very soon.
No need to lower yourself to talks of racism and violence, Avalon will get what they deserve based on the lack of trust.. Nothing about that comment is racist. The thing that's stopping me from asking for a refund is the collateral damage it might cause to Steamboat. I've already paid for chips and assembly and know that Steamboat has already spent money to acquire components in good faith.
How can I ask for a refund under those circumstances, knowing that Steamboat is completely blameless for Avalon not following through ?
It's not an easily rectifiable situation.
... IF steamboat can show that they did EVERYTHING but failed due to avalon... yes if they cant show that... steamboat scammed ya Steamboat is really working on miners for someone because I did CFD analysis on his heatsink. He wouldn't have had that done if it was all just a scam to take money and not deliver something to someone, at least. That someone may not have been the group purchasers or it may be the purchasers just not in the time-frame they were expecting. That's what scammers do... come up with excuses... one after the next... then poof dissappear...

I don't think anyone else even knew about it and I am not in his group buy. So, he had no need to make me believe he was producing something that he actually was not. He was/is producing something.

It is, and it's not appropriate. I understand you may be pissed off with Bitsyncom's lies and fraudulent behaviour, but overt racism as well as violence is not on, and is a criminal offence in itself.

No. Using a word to describe someone, no matter how offensive is not equivalent to racism. Racism involves the belief that certain people are inferior on the level of rights, abilities, etc. simply because they are of a particular race and without any other justification. Calling a Chinese person a chink may be offensive to some people but it is not racism. I suppose your school teacher told you otherwise. I have noticed this a lot with the generations who were born in the mid-late 80s and beyond. You all have been told this is racism, it is not. Lift yourself up out of the brainwashing. Name-calling D.N.E. Racism.

Refund and Boycott. Best option right now. Is "refund" really what you mean? IME, that implies that the chips will never be delivered, and you accept the same amount that you paid for them being returned to you. The chips are not standalone devices. What about the hardware (boards) needed to run them? What about the time and funds that went into developing and purchasing and building that hardware? A refund for the chips alone hardly seems satisfactory to me. Immediate delivery + compensation seems better, but I'd be surprised to see that. I think most buyers wouldn't be made whole without at least a ~2x refund--and that doesn't even account for missed opportunity, just cost of equipment. So...I'm not sure that even qualifies as being "made whole", after all.

I have asked for a refund 7 days ago via Support Ticket as Avalon is in breach of contract. http://support.avalon-asic.com/support <--- feel free Group Buy Leaders to join in the calls for a refund. Others should do the same and until we are compensated properly our group buy members will not buy or support Avalon products. DIY effforts like BKKCoins etc we do support but once they are complete we intend to maintain our boycott and be very vocal about their lack of communication and failures to deliver both relevant information and the product to the customers on time. We are also working on legal actions with other group buys at this time.
