Has anyone heard from Changdrew recently on these GBs?

Tried sending him a PM on deskthority but I haven't heard back.

Nope... I think if he doesn't have time to post a quick update in his threads, then he won't have time to reply to PMs.

I've had the taobao buy packages packed and ready to send for quite a while now, but have been unable to actually start addressing and get them sent via USPS. I should be able to get started on doing that aforementioned things today (Sunday) and tomorrow (Monday). I sincerely apologize for the delay and hope you guys can forgive me.

As for the imsto groupbuy, I'm working out a few kinks. I have technically sent out the order but have to get some things fixed before finalizing.

Once again, I am really sorry, and hope you guys will stick with my buys :)

Got the case parts, thanks again for that kalrykh, sent you a PM.

It's been a rough week. I have a small dog that got very sick recently, and after several visits to the vet they diagnosed her with having acute kidney failure. She's doing very well now after about a week of treatment. She just started eating on her own today and blood work is showing much lower toxicity levels. She should be coming home tomorrow.

Hopefully my stress levels subside soon so I can get back to my projects. I’m really looking forward to the weekend.

Yeah I agree it's taking a long time. But like my issues above, life happens. Perhaps he should post something here and provide an update? ;)

try filing a dispute on Paypal. There is a 45-day limit, though. Maybe that is what ChangDrew was counting on.

for those wondering what the hell is going on with ChangDrew's group buy, email him at zhangaz@gmail.com. If you can, file a dispute on Paypal.

Emailed him a long time ago, dispute is impossible because of being over 45 days old. Getting pretty pissed at this whole situation now.

I just opened a dispute for my transaction. Not sure what the 45 days is about, but we'll see where it goes. I also emailed him directly.

try doing a charge back if you paid with a credit card, or maybe even your bank will help you.

I wonder how much money is tied into these two group buys and whether PayPal would even authorize disputes at this point. My purchase was small and I just paid with my PayPal balance. I wonder how many others did the same.

$85 for me

Yup, mine is not small...$106. And I don't think mine was one of the largest orders. In fact, I believe mine was closer to the middle of the pack.

EDIT: and that doesn't account for all the questions I get from my wife about "where the fuck are my My Little Pony key caps?!"

This by the way is why PayPal doesn't allow GBs, as much as we hate them they have their reasons

It would be nice if there were some kind of escrow service available for GBs. Given that we are talking about what can often be >$10,000, who's to say that some previously reliable person with "real life problems" will not suddenly have a change of heart—especially after buyers have patiently waited past the dispute period.

I haven't looked into it yet, but someone else suggested http://massdrop.com. Maybe they offer something like this.

ChangDrew is in the Saratoga, CA area. Anyone close to there who could pay him a visit and talk to him in person?
