This is getting ridiculous.
Ordered 1/8 (they said 1/9)
1/22 was sent a non functional tracking number, they said this is what they received from the shipping company, asked me to resend my address.
1/24 no emails, no responses. I'm worried they went on Chinese New Years.
After seeing all these QC issues, being lied to that it was in stock, getting junk tracking numbers, I don't have much trust in these guys.
Has anybody heard from them in a few days?

spoke to them today via email, very responsive once you open a paypal claim.
im just going to return it, with it not starting assume the controller board is fried, although i can see no evidence of any damage.
Let us know how the return goes. Are they covering the return shipping? If not, how much is it to mail it back to China?
they tried to make me cover it, but it will cost me too much as these things are too heavy. waiting on an update if their dhl account can arrange a collection.
Just curious, what PSUs were you using with it? If PP wants you to pay for shipping, it may be more profitable to sell off the modules on ebay or here on bitcointalk.
stupidly i was using their stock psu's
i switched out to some 750w corsairs after it stopped working but the short appears to have killed more than the psus and the network card. strangely the controller board still flashes activity lights getting instructions from cgminer, including fans changing speed.
The 750w corsairs may not have enough amps. Check to see if they have more than 60 amps each. I had the same kind of problem you describe with cgminer and it was just the PSU. At first I went overkill and bought two 1000w 80plus gold PSUs with 83a each. Then I tried a 750w thermaltake with 62a that turns out to do just fine. They have a $10 rebate as well right now. I hope this helps. A 35lb return to China sounds quite daunting.
