hi all,
I communicated with agath yesterday evening via #btcfpga IRC channel and email, he sent me his signed contract with Tom and we agreed on coordinated complaint to Tom's bank (Woodforest TX). Right now I have found an email from him that he received a full refund yesterday evening.
I'm going to try contact Tom again, hope he will respond. If not, I will contact his bank and try everything possible to get my money back.
I do not think Tom is a scammer, but the way how he communicate with his customers is definitely bad.
Tom - if you read this, please do a simple thing - just communicate! Anyone can get into trouble and I personally can understand that and agree on how to resolve the situation.
Agath - congratulations a I hope everyone will have such luck as you

regards,
benco
