The arrangement had always been a "group buy" as the SUBJECT of this thread suggests. All investors own all machines equally sharing all the risk between everyone.
I can not imagine the extra work load determining who's is what and when and how much.
It's a GROUP BUY.
I dont want to take a side because i think both views have advantages but it was planned as a group buy to buy one Avalon machine. Then another one. At least iam thought all the time i put my money into to buy the one machine.
Maybe in future groupbuys this has to be specified more exactly. Im ok with having a part of all machines because it spreads the risk in case a machine is broken or something.
Same. I did my due diligence and stayed up for 24+ hours to watch the Avalon event. Had my money in before Avalons were on sale.
CH refunded every member that did not make the cut, closed all payments before Avalon were on sale. Annouced the groubuy was closed. I did not expect him to spend the next 3 days taking more. Though I appreciate the community dedication.
Althought its not actually a big deal.(for me), I now feel shafted because, my investment is diluted for a extra period of time; even though I did the extra work that 80% of the people here did not bother with. At the end of the days it will be moot once all the Avalons are up and running. So we really shouldn't take this out of proportion.
