Message	about future product releases - all in accord with what you drive home in your post..... A groupbuy works out usually pretty well - the idea of it is to provide a product at a discounted price with the understanding that the product isn't "on the shelf, ready to go", and that it will be manufactured and delivered at some declared date a little ways down the road. Unfortunately with this product, the manufacturer has been my weak link. Although it isn't directly my fault, it is undoubtedly my responsibility if product is not delivered on time and I dont dismiss that fact by any stretch. Thanks for the fair response.
