Many thanks,

refund received. good luck to all of you, guys.

I'm with MRKLYE in this, i want my refund immediately, and also publicly announced.

You're saying you have to calculate refunds while they are already calculated and posted since hours.
It seems to me that you are waiting for further payments for some reasons before processing these refunds.

Sebastian, i publicly ask you to refund my funds immediately, the way you're acting as an escrow agent is absolutely unacceptable for me and for other members as well. You released the funds of many shareholders without any transparent and public spreadsheet or similar. Buyers do not know what they are buying, and you're following the one-sided orders of the seller, which makes escrowing unreasonable, not to mention that your explanation of your agreement with anykeywhy is also pretty weak,


and that you are close friends.

Guys, push that send button on your bitcoin client because both of your reputation is on stake now.

Hello everyone,

I share completely MRKLYE's view on this. I want my refund immediately as well, and i stick myself to MRKLYE's deadline.
I think it's not only anykeywhy's, but also the escrow, SebastianJu's reputation on stake here.

First I think it's fully unethical to provide escrow services in a deal where an old friend of you is acting as seller,

Second there is still no public spreadsheet about shares, members, payments and refund requests, this is the complete lack of transparency (although it's more then 48 hours since anykeywhy first promised to process these requests).

This is not a situation when an escrow can release funds.

I strongly advise you guys to process my refund request of 1 BTC

and publish it here just the same way as you received them.

Thanks, issue solved, there is a function in Multibit to reset blockchain and transactions which helped

It was scary though...

Hi,

i don't have linux and even the returning change is blocked, i mean not spendable

what else are my options? all the help will be greatly appreciated

Really? Is it going to go through just once upon a time?

Is it a normal 'bug' and do i have to consider this risk in each and every tx?

Hi everyone,

I'd need some urgent help or ideas what's happening.

I sent a transaction appr. 24 hrs ago sending 0.7539 BTC to an address, with 0.0001 BTC fee (that's handled by my client automatically); the transaction didn't go through, according to my client its status is 'Seen by 1 peer. Pending/unconfirmed', blockhain.info doesn't find this tx.

I'm using Multibit 0.5.15 on Mac OS X 10.9

Many thanks in advance for the ideas what's going on here, and what should i do

Thanks Sebastian,

That's fine, that's what i was waiting for.

Thank you for your efforts,
chnch

akw, you posted several time-consuming messages in the last hours but didn't answer my question at all. It is as easy: writing a YES or a NO.

Please confirm that myself, who decided as the very first to get out will get a full refund of 0.05 BTC / share for my 20 shares; directly from the escrow agent, SebastianJu.

All I need is a YES from you and the same from SebastianJu and I'll disappear from here. Is it so complicated to understand or is there any other reason not to give a clear and straightforward answer.

akw, it's fine, i understood that you publicly announced that i'm out, this is what i want. Now i need a confirmation from the escrow agent, who is not only representing the interest of the seller, in this case you akw, but also the buyer, myself. As soon i get a public confirmation from him that he'll guarantee the full refunds i'll finish posting here and will wait patiently for the next three days.

thanks

...and it was not me telling him not to pay for the first batch after it has been filled and BTC prices were still in the fine range.

If these off-focus issues are are disturbing the OP he'd have no other task just to instruct the escrow to refund the members who requested that. Instead of this one-line PM he posts several arrogant advises for everybody to wait for his turn (it still would be fine if he and the escrow had explicitly and publicly confirm that the refunds will be processed fully at the original 0.05BTC/share rate without any deductions, but this is not happening either.)
  

Dear SebastianJu,

Could you please confirm that you guarantee that the refunds will be processed fully?

Thanks for answering this,

chnch

With all my respect Sebastian i definitely do not think that i decided one day and the opposite on the other. The case is that after my payment for batch #1 which was based based on clear conditions denominated in BTC and had no word about any 'moving target' or 'let's hope the best moment for the XR', questions have raised concerning handling of the deviation of price it turned out that:
   a) akw has only a weak plan for this situation on the top of that it might have a strong financial impact on the share value
   b) akw treats its customers (we are customers because we paid him, and he's not a volunteer working altruistically in our favour) in an at least for me unacceptable way

I think I announced in time that i'm out (i was the first one doing that which started the wave) for anyone: akw, other GB members, potential customers to calculate with this move, by reselling my share or not even starting batch #3, which akw many times stated that is ready to pay from his own funds.

Honestly I suspect some dishonesty here, but anyway it's not important: i took a decision in time and it needs to be respected.

I understand that akw wants to process refunds after order has been placed, it's fine for me as long as you can guarantee that after having the order paid i will get my full purchase price (1 BTC for 20 shares) refunded.

Thank you for your assistance and answer,

chnch

Dear akw,

First of all I'd like to emphasize how much i appreciate all your efforts for this group buy instead of keeping the hardware and let it run for you, as you stated earlier as your other feasible option.
Therefore - and by seeing the increasing number of members wanting to get out for different reasons (and yes, transparent handling of this also belongs to the duties of a prudent group buy) - i'd like to ask you that instead of the attitude of your previous posts in this very question, please confirm with a simple YES or NO that

Will all the refund requests be processed (100% of payments) and publicly announced before SebastianJu, the escrow agent releases the funds?

I didn't sent this to you in PM as you advised, because i think that as each previous steps of this group by (including payment transactions) have happened publicly there is no real reason for this part not to happen the same way.
If you don't want to get bothered by the refund-issue and really want these 'out-of-focus' messages to disappear all you need is to give a clear answer as YES and i'm pretty sure that everyone will respect your request for not to distract the focus of this topic.

I'll also send a PM to SebastianJu, asking him to look into this thread and requesting him to confirm his standpoint.

Thanks for your attention and waiting for your answer.

Hi,

thanks for responding to my question. As i lost my trust based on your answer i'd like to get a full refund and/or anyone willing to take 20 shares@0.05 BTC each for the first batch? (i was among the firsts who paid, as according to post #61 in this thread).

Cheers,
chnch 

Hi akw,

i greatly appreciate your efforts of organizing this group buy, although i'm not convinced you only do it driven by your altruism, which anyway would be a strange case.
I hope it's clear i'm not talking about the exchange rate, as you stated anyone talking about it will be ignored (which is again a strange attitude, but it's your freedom to do whatever you like) and i'll get an answer from you.

I'd only like to know what is the exact agreement between you and SebJu for the escrowed funds to be released.

Thanks 9n advance for your answer,

ch

PS: I'm definitely not the guy referred by akw of bothering him via PM, i never sent a PM to him.

I am also in order#1, and i'd like to publicly and explicitly announce that i'm NOT interested in the deal if the initial conditions (0.05BTC/10GHS) will be relevantly changed. What is relevant for each shareholder should be decided by them individually, at least an option for a full refund has to be offered to anyone deciding to get out. I'm sure there will be takers for the refunded shares, if there will be any. Please consider this prior to release of the funds by the escrow, and OP please confirm you share this view.

thanks
