Denafrips/Vinshine not everything they were built up to be.

Just a FYI for the AG members, as that is how I (second handedly) got the info that there would be no worries.... Vinshine that as you know is the sole world wide distributor of Denafrips. 
I placed an order with Vinshine on April 4th and sat back to see just how long this adventure would or could take. I never received any communication after the e-mail that stated my order was in. So this past Monday (approximately 5 weeks) I sent them an e-mail inquiring as to the status of my order. It took a couple days, due to time differences, but out of nowhere dated yesterday (5/13/21) is a shipping number and packing list. Nothing else... no sorry about the delay, I know this must look strange your shipment all of a sudden going?????
There were those of you that said, no way... I wouldn't do it. And, what about warranty. 
I've been a member here 14 years and never posted anything. You guys need another unknown voice like a hole in the head. I just read my Friday Forum Highlights like my mom used to read her National Inquirer. But thought I would at least alert you to seemingly some strange goings on at Denafrips.

"strange goings on"


I believe your anecdote, but your hyperbolic headline and conclusion seem oddly out of proportion.

If there are others who have had similar experiences, I haven't seen them reported on this, or other forums. In fact, Alvin Chee of Vinshine has a well documented history of being very responsive to any issues, including answering questions directly on forums. So your experience is undoubtedly anomalous.

Perhaps Denafrips has been adversely impacted by the well-reported chip shortage, which would explain uncommon shipping delays. The lack of communication that you report is disappointing, but again, I see no evidence that it is remotely typical.

Chip shortage is primarily due to the AKM fire, but I should have know better than posting to this group. I owned my own business for 40 years that involved taking orders, creating either shippers or packing list OR create a back order. If someone contacted me after five weeks and all of a sudden the product is available for immediate shipping.... "something strange is going on." 
I have been and continue to be in "rolling back order" situations. In all cases there have been communications.... The thing that keeps countries out of war. This was intended to be an FYI for the group.... No More!

You’ve only gotten one reply to this post and you’re *already* swearing off posting to this group? For someone in business for 40 years, I’d suspect you’re capable of more resilience to pushback than just one reply to your post. Give us a chance.

I thank you for the FYI. Please let any unwarranted criticism roll off. It sure looks like "stay away" stuff to me. 
All good my friend.
