Well, silly me. I didn't know you could purchase directly from FutureBit so I bought an Apollo II 1TB from BitCoinMerch.
Sam from BitCoinMerch just informed me that there is nothing they will do about my ded Apollo II because it's 3 days out of their 30-day warranty. Yes, 3 days. Delivered on Oct 15, went ded on Nov 17.
So word to the wise, think twice before buying from a place like BitCoinMerch that only offers a 30-day warranty.
I'm hoping for mercy from FutureBit. I filled out their support form yesterday, but last time I did that (to ask a setup clarification), it took them 7-days to respond.
If FutureBit won't help me, I'm out ~ $1200 and now have a stylish paper weight.
In the meantime, BitCoinMerch won't be getting any more of my business.
Did you buy it with a credit card? If so file a claim/charge back against BitCoinMerch.
If FutureBit is no help a VO meter is your best friend to check the PSU and the switch which was mentioned to be a problem.
Well, if you don't get satisfaction from Futurebit or your CC company, and you also decide to not and try to fix it yourself, you could always sell it at a loss for parts. I for one would be willing to pay an insultingly low price for your misfortune as I'm sure I could dissect it over time to feed my needs.
