Today's news from Avalon:
Avalon turns One years old
What a roller coaster ride it has been
We went from the last to enter the ASIC mining market crowd-funded by the community to the first to shipping a consumer product in little over 4 month. On this journey, many mistakes were made, tons of things were learned and we will continue to grow as one of the groups to keep mining decentralized and support the DIY community. Those are our goals.
In the up coming week we will doing a clearance sale on the refunded chips as well as some mining units and modules to close generation one and move on to a pre-sale-less generation two of the Avalon Project.
Stay tuned as many more exciting news will be announced in the coming week.
Everyone should request refunds at this point.
What a crock of shit.
So
FIRST they delay shipping of chips, screwing their customers.
Secondly, they ship the chips that everybody paid full price for, while refunding others.
Third, they announce a clearance sale on refunded chips.
Fourth, that effectively screws the customers who got delayed chips at full price.
What is the incentive to buy Avalon chips again? I must have missed that one.
No one will buy them now. How else do they get rid of them? Continue to charge full price? Seems like a catch 22...
