the same shit happens again and again. Why doesnt yifu update us? Shipping should be finished this week and it appears that there are only like 10 units shipped so far!

Avalon gives us 2 days to get a refund & say they'll ship next week, and as of now there's only a handful of machines that have shipped in Batch 3 even a week later...

There's still a lot of batch 1s and 2s that still haven't shipped either, and they just get ignored by Bitsyncom like they are not his problem...

He took in millions of dollars in Bitcoins and now can care less about the people whom enriched him- it is quite scummy/scammy/disgusting. Take a few thousand dollars out of the millions you made and hire someone for support, it's not that hard. They're either too cheap or they just don't care, and as time goes on and they make more and more money from chip sales, I'm leaning towards the latter.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but it's about time for a scammer tag, eh? I think someone started a scammer thread the other day in the scam subforum for Batch 1s and 2s that still haven't arrived.

A scammer tag wouldn't hurt them, you have to go after their cash and for this you would need to involve a legal entity. I'm really curious if their business practice are conform with US law. Selling products under wrong promises (ROI prediction), sending out products as samples even they aren't. Import products without needed certifications, let customers abroad pay in foreign currency to private bank accounts (chinese customers could pay in RMB to an chinese account). Using customer products for own profit before delivery,.... Is all that really legal in US? The list could be even more extended, could be worth to let an attorney look into this case, all this points looking suspicious to me.

What is your goal?

To get clear if people have rights that protects them from being exploited. There are laws and regulations to protect customers for good reason, people can stand in for their right and let companies know that they have to follow that rules made by the society. Well, if no one complains there will be no justice. The powerful will only change if they are forced to. My personal impression is that a lot of customers tried many ways to get in contact with BitSyncom to settle problems, however they don't seem really encouraged to give answers or to be honest. What choice does these customers have left?
