We just received 60 sample chips from Avalon. Apparently from the 20,000 chips order we placed on June 20th. There was no status updated on the order page, and we never received a tracking number. As knightlife pointed, some other people who placed order around the same time have received chips in the last couple days in the same fashion.
i thought your orders were in may?
Look at the photobucket link in my post yesterday (from my visit last month): They have 20k chips ordered in May, and 20k chips ordered in June.
