Our current live preview (Not the most recent code | Changes have not been submitted yet) https://bitbay.cc
The site at http://bitbay.cc is a turnkey site that can be purchased for US$47.
Now, if someone uses that as a base to build their code around then it is not essentially a 'bad' thing. I regularly use open source software to build stores/sites, I just modify them to the point they are almost unrecognisable and have a different feel about them. I love using open source and existing ecommerce sites, my current project is based around one and I modify it all myself. Just when the real complex things cannot be done, I rent-a-coder and do the rest myself. I am all for using a template (open source or otherwise for any project) but transparency is totally paramount in cases such as these because there could be vulnerabilities to the code and investors need to know what is going on and how the site is being scripted, not just have a target date because the investment of staggering amounts of BTC as well as the hopes and aspirations of returns by the investors are HUGE.
The code he has is cheap off the shelf turn Key script not worth 100,000+ dollars in shares he wants to sell for himself.I tried to tell him that the shares where for Bitbays Development not him to spend as he wishes.

Investors, seriously, ask for your money back and only re-invest once you are satisfied the battle between the two protagonists is over. Not for me to say who is right and who is wrong here but surely investors should not be part of this. Pull your investment out immediately and re-invest if your heart desires after things become clear.
Then make sure the code is up to the job and make sure the file servers, image servers, db servers(s) and loadbalancers are set up to maximise your outlay. Questions about where to host, where to buy the EV SSL, which server/db configuration to employ, which periods/locations for DB back, where to store all master user/pass in case the main dev becomes unavailable or incapacitated and how investors can login themselves to check income/expenditure and receive daily/weekly/monthly cash flow documents so on and so forth.
These issues and others have to form part of the investors contract. Pull your investments out for now guys until everything becomes crystal clear.
