| Ivancic sticks to his previous promise that the first computers will be
| delivered around August 15. According to Ivancic they have received thousands
| of orders.
|
| In order to defend himself against accusations of fraud, he leans on the
| established American online retailer, 2Checkout, which has promised that no
| money will be withdrawn from the customer’s account before a product has been
| shipped. The money remains in every individual’s account; it has been
| reserved, but no money has been withdrawn.

| So here are my own conclusions:
|
| -Even if Medison really is a scam, my will get my money back when 2Checkout
| realizes they have nothing.
|
| -It is unlikely that Medison is a scam because they are working through a
| distributor (which seems reputable according to BBB). Taking orders and not
| delivering anything will not get them anything at all, because it wouldn't
| make sense for 2Checkout to give them the money without first getting their
| hands on the product.
