Ummm... actually four of us were trusting enough to put down deposits on Eyal's "Group Buy". This was back in Dec. 2003. When my patience ran out I asked for my deposit back in March of 2004 Eyal stated there would be no refunds, to just be patient, just a few more days...
Haven't heard a word since. Draw your own conclusions.

Someone take charge and file a formal complaint to the county they are in (I think it's Santa Barbara) with everyone's names and address' stating their product completion promise dates and how often they missed them.

They may lose their business license :D

I'll do what I can to help as well but being in the east limits what I can do. As for who dropped deposits I believe besides Akfahad and myself there was Xtychx and all_red?
Eyal never gave precise dates as to when the headers would be delivered, just "soon", "a few more days", as soon as they clear customs" etc. The Xerd sticky tells the story. I've also saved my email correspondence with Eyal as well if that helps.
As far as calling to harrass them thats like water off a duck's back. Eyal has pulled this stunt before where he took a bunch of deposits with a previous co. then filed bankrupt.I found this out too late.
