Also Scam

[George]

Has Chris Yu been running a scam ? It is now apparent that Also has possibly collected thousands of orders for LE ebikes at nearly $5000. each. They do not have the bikes to cover the orders but continue to misslead customers as to when they will get the bikes ? They appear to be delivering a small sample to make it look like they are shipping. They are in effect scamming customers out of thousands of dollars in fully paid orders.

Also I would like to clarify that Chris ,the administrator of this forum is the same ChriYu the CEO of Also
I will assume that is correct unless I hear otherwise. It would be great if you can give us insight into why Also has been deliberately missleading and lying about delivering the Launch Edition for the last year. Please reply asap.

I got my bike, from the update emails it sounds like MOST of the LE customers already have theirs. It's a rocky time for ALSO. as they need to get enough bikes and parts out there so that there can be a going concern with lots of bike shops to support them. Hopefully they make it, but unlikely that it's a scam. Too much money invested to have several different demonstrable products for all our money to be going home with the CEO

I get folks are upset, but running a “scam?” Come on.

The scam is in the way Also is getting full payment for orders under the false promises of delivery of bikes that they do not have and will not get in the timeline that they are claiming! They are deliberately misleading and lying about when they are shipping the bikes. Yes I would consider this a scam, even though I think they do have a great product and will eventually hopefully get all the bikes delivered. At this point It my be sometime next year before they get all of Launch edition bikes delivered, as you can not trust what they are saying!
