Recheck the dates. The update on April 30 says they will ship on April 10. So did they ship or not? When would this group buy ship?
I noticed that as well and I think it is a typo and he meant to type May. Blackarrow created the thread April 25th to announce the availability of the product. CardReaderFactory's website states, "This product is currently out of stock; We will ship around 8/05/2013 but might ship sooner. Please place your order but do not pay! We will send you an email when they are in stock."
Which, means they should ship in a week.
