Is the UniChip GB going to be like others!?

I dont know how many people saw the GB for the icebox, but it was interesting to see how many people DIDNT jump in mainly because the product was new.

Even though comptech has a good reputation and dynos which indicated the great gains, people were still hesitant. Then i remember people began ordering them left and right as soon as it was reviewed by a few members of the board, and i think even one more dyno came from it.

A similar event seems to be happening with the Unichip. Beyond the price, it looks like people want to hold out until the first batch is sold and reviews come shooting in. I understand why people do this, but i think there is sufficient evidence on the gains and the mod has proven to be worth it.

After this GB, the price will go up as it was the case for the GB with the icebox. I paid 245 GB shipped price, and I have yet to see a better deal.

More important is to note that these guys are pretty firm on the price, and without large amounts of people, negotiating is hard. I hope more people jump in this so we can make this chip come to life.

Guys, I'm trying so hard from every angle to get this going.. From posting on every website to sending random PM's to people which showed the slightest interest and I'm starting to get a few more responses and things are definetley still moving and I'm not slowing down..

I'd be in definitely if my wife didn't have me by the balls! Sad thing is I am actually contemplating getting the chip and not telling her!

OK listen .. I would be in but its a money issue. I can handle the 100$ deposit right now. But when would I need to have the rest of the cash by?

It will probably take them atleast a month to get us a finished product.. And that's once we get everything organized here and get enough people.. To be honest I'd say about 2 months..

We don't need multiple topics on this... please feel free to direct all posts to the sticky. If you'd like me to merge this topic into that topic.. shoot me a PM... otherwise, just keep it in there b/c it causes more confusion.
