The cells I ordered from Michael were not in this group. I received them almost a year ago.Now, why don't you be honest. When did you place your order? Did you post pics of your cells? Why would you even joke around about absolving Michael? How do you know it's "300+ cells according to michael?" Have you spoke to Michael about this? Where is this information at publicly? I never receivednit and I'm an affected party. Rather, as discussed, I've been told one story after another, after another....just as everyone else has.
About absolving Michael, I am not joking. If this goes to court who is going to be blamed? Michael or the supplier? A good attorney in Michael's defense might be able to absolve him since there was no intent on Michael's part to supply damaged cells. My point is your intentions could very well back fire. But I digress...I am not an attorney so I don't know what if any resolution the court would award.
Michael posted the number of cells on the last page of the other thread. Perhaps you could run over there and take a look?
I never go by when orders were placed, rather by when orders were received. I can't peg an exact date before initiating action. That's up to you. Regarding orders placed in Feb, is that for the Lishen cells? Those people asking for refunds for those orders should be refunded fairly soon.But, let me ask you this: how.long do you suppose everyone let's this go until it becomes an issue? 3 months? 6 months? The oldest order I know about is Februsqry 1. In 5 months, we're at a year. And yet, we're still sending out damaged cells. Moreover, to my knowledge, nobody has posted saying their CATL cells were received packaged appropriately, as described, and undamaged. Not one!
But...what do you mean by we're still sending out damaged cells? It's my understanding the supplier has recalled cells that have not been received.
If I was part of this group in this group buy I would not be sending you anything at this point in time. I would wait to see what kind of resolution Michael offers. If there is a failure on Michael's part to make everyone whole to their satisfaction then that's a different story. But adding more logs to the fire now isn't helping. I am sure Michael is devastated as any one of us would be. Do you think he intended for all these cells to arrive damaged, and with scratched off QR codes and what not?I'll stand by with what I said from the get go. If you want to be organized, send me your information. If you don't, that's fine too. I find it better to be prepared and not need it than to not be prepared and need it.
That much we can agree on. Running a one man show as Michael has been doing is not good. I recommended to him a long time ago he appoint or hire another person who could fill in his shoes in the event something happened to him. When he failed to do that I backed off recommending his group buy. I understand he was having some personal problems but there is no excuse for the lack of communication on his part.Once more, Michael, welcome back and please keep an open line of communication with all of us.
I honestly hope Michael get's this resolved for you and everyone else involved. Seeing what's happened had caused me to be sad, angry and a bunch of other depressing feelings. I have considered Michael a friend but business is business. And I have made it clear... do what you gotta do if he doesn't make this right.
