The original thread starter does not come to this thread very often because of cancer filled comments. Want something answered? ask it on discord. Too many trolls and toxic people here calling it a scam, why should he have to waste his time arguing with people like you?
Discord is a Circle Jerk where you get banned for not touting the party line. Freedom of speech comes with these drawbacks. Welcome to a place you can speak your mind and you won't be banned for it. I've been on their discord channel for quite some time, and the only folks I saw get banned were the jerks who added nothing but ad hominem attacks and insults to anyone and everyone they could. Phil asked essentially the same hard questions he asked here and got some answers but not banned. He surely was not following the party line. That is not true. I was banned for wanting to sell my 8x 1070ti rig for 1 fpga 1525. I thought it was a fair trade due to the high demand in refunds and I was willing to trade their risk. They got insulted and banned me. That is unacceptable and I expect more professional behavior if selling expensive products. That's not how you treat your future customers that want to buy in Just to prove to everyone that you're just an internet troll here's the full context of his conversation on discord. https://imgur.com/a/9tYvO1PNice sleuthing of retard troll

I really hope they do come through with the refunds for all that want them. And the gear for all that wants the gear.

Got an email that my acorn refund check is in the mail. Thanks!
Yeah I'll believe it when the money is in the wallet. If true, funny how some people get refunds and emails when the rest don't even get news on the status of their orders.

I'm hedging bets with myself on which product will arrive first, 2 x CLE-215+ boards I ordered on the 8th of this month from Mineority, or a 80mm 7000rpm case fan I ordered 3 days later on New Egg that is coming from China. Last tracking stats on my New Egg order is the item's location is at GUANGZHOU EMS CHINA where it was processed 12 days ago. At this point I doubt either will hit this month, but November looks promising.

I am also glad that you received your refund. I got a slightly smaller amount in BTC than I paid. It is almost exact amount in $. I lost just a little of BTC but negligible. I paid on Mineority and they gave me me back what Acorn price (in $) was. We can now concentrate on other things.

I've played the waiting game on a few next gen items from small manufacturers. Heck I was even one of the small companies once. Delays happen, orders and their changes can over whelm a work load. It's a common thing. Back in the early 3D printer days the Replicator 1 had a six month delay and the unit ran like crap upon arrival. But with the community doing and sharing mods it's been a multiple ROI machine for me.
Any new edge tech has risk. The do diligents research for the Acorns and the BCU was simple enough I thought. I jumped in with non essential money fully expecting delays because there are way to many things happening for a smooth time line transition. I also have a good feeling the FPGA thing in general will mature nicely so I'm not expect killer returns straight out the gate. I'd much rather have a late delivered product that works than a unit I need to return do to a manufacturing flaw that was later fixed.
I thing I am disappointing in is the banter within both this forum and the fpga related discord groups. Oh well, dealing with an entitlement based irrational public is why I retired. Thankfully some out there still step up and push forward with a challenging product. That kind of dedication and talent I admire and that's why I opened my wallet.

I got my refund back today, it was almost the same amount but about .005BTC short. I'm just glad they returned my money. It was unfortunate they couldn't release this product on time, but at least some of us can move on.
