I still think its fishy if he hasn’t posted any pics whatsoever of anything at this point. I call BS on whatever he’s saying till he shows us proof. Come on qiufang.

Yeah, I mean I was hoping not to have to say it like this, but the whole thing has been super suss from the get go. I understand that this is Qui's first GB which he was clear about in the OP; this being my first GB outside of Massdrop though has left me feeling pretty sour about the whole thing. Honestly, this whole experience has been pretty f****** woeful.
From Qui's
"10 week roadmap" we're now in week 14 with no indication of whether or not the boards even exist outside of a single photo from when they were being CNC'd. We've been told for awhile now that he has the PCB's but hasn't been able to give updates on them or show photos of them. He has been prone to straight up disappearing for long periods; including completely ghosting for several weeks after starting the GB
(If you knew you were going on this trip, why did you not start the GB after returning?) - I'm all for waiting as long as it takes for the board to be perfected before delivery, but I'd also like some kind of sign that things are actually progressing.
Honestly, in the nicest way possible, even if this GB is successful Qui I would strongly consider not running further buys in the future. This isn't a jab at you or me trying to be pessimistic in the slightest, but I genuinely feel you don't have the capacity to run a GB. If your buyers are going to hand over as much money as you've been given to deliver something, the least you can do is provide prompt updates when they're requested
(Especially when you yourself are posting things like "If you have any questions please feel free to ask." and then again just vanishing for a week with no answer...).
