^^^ batch 3 wasn't overprice --- if it wasn't 3 months late. As is will be break even and get a small ROI but it's not as great investment as it looked originally.
As someone who has been to China and has friends in China, just wanted to say briefly that 'shit is different over there'. I'm not defending Yifu or apologizing for his lateness, but, folks got to keep in mind business is just done differently over there. If there is a customs problem that means that right person was not paid the right amount. Bribery is just the primary way business gets done over there, folks do not have the same legal protections or recourse available to them. I don't know the details of the situation but that's just the fact of doing business with companies in China.
Even up to multinational company level, you have to pay many bribes 'fee's' to many people and you are at there mercy, you can complain to any sort of business organization or the police or anything. It's a much different system than in North america.
That's what I've come to understand.
I think we are still entitled to an explanation. Four weeks went by before these even got to custom. I just want an answer. If Yifu ignores me, then I'm no worse off than everyone beating their chests in the "Not Dead Thread". Maybe my post publicly directed at Yifu will get a response. I'm not holding my breath, but what's the harm?
No they didn't 2.1 million chips were photographed ready and in hand by an ex-Bitsyncom member in late June and posted on this forum.
