Re: Basix...
I understand the hesitancy by those who have expressed it and several of them have bowed out (by taking their names off of the list), but there are still quite a few (6) who are still on the fence b/c of price. That's been set now. There are also some with other concerns that may or may not be/have-been addressed. That may be the chance one takes on an initial offering group buy. I, like Osiris, have taken into consideration all of the factors and decided to go for it - mainly off of ZTec's other proven product history.
It's been a while since I've read through this whole thread and I may have missed some posts but I beleive the group buy ended a couple weeks ago so deposits/payments could be made, a final count of each style (91-94, 95-96, etc) could be tallied and production started. With this few paid at this point I have to wonder if there aren't some participants who have paid and not posted a change in status or some who have changed their minds about buying and failed to take their name off of the list. I have been in enough gb's to understand there will never be 100% participation by those on the "list" but 20% (currently) isn't fair... Not to Lance, not to us who will likely be waiting for more payers to surface before production begins.
I'm sorry, I'm just used to participating in smaller gb's and seeing a much higher % having paid 2 weeks after its close.
Ok, I'll get off my soapbox now. :biggrin:
