Sucker. There is zero chance of you getting your product in 2 months.

Good luck. Hope it works out for you. If they actually ship anything anytime soon expect a few thousand units minimum to be online by the time you get yours. You should be alright if you can get ROI in 12months or less.

Word from BFL:
"will likely ship sometime in late July or early August, sooner if possible."

Oh god, half a year wait.

Considering their forecasting record it would be August 2014, if at all. I voted #1.

I strongly suggest you look else where for an asic solution if the earliest is august delivery. I'm still happily mining away with my 7970, and at current prices it's producing $5 profit a day on top of all the coin it has produced since August 2012. It's been a great investment so far and plays all the latest games to. Good luck again.

It's not 2 months (60days) to start a PayPal dispute for non-delivery. It's 45 days!  Don't fall for that one. ;)

I ordered a 60Gh/s Miner for $1,299. I have asked for a refund but the PayPal account I used is no longer in use.... this is probably going to cause some problems  ???

Better that BFL gets this money. Money in the hands of nitwits is dangerous.

Let me guess. You're new here?

They've been saying they'll ship in October, then November, then December, then January, then February, then March, and now April. They've shipped absolutely nothing the whole time. You can't honestly believe you'll get a device in July/August. If you're lucky, you'll have it just in time for Christmas.

Good advice. Thanx

Oh come on, people. You sound like BFL is bad and scam or something. ;D
They are legitimate company, have they ever lied to us?  Wrong dates and incorrect power and broken chips and other stuff, is just simple miscalculation on their end and plain bad luck ;D

Feel like putting my face in this pick every now and then for trusting BFL.

Since BFL now doubled the price and dropped hash rate on the new orders. You are better off sell your preorder on eBay for at least double price.

Think I should cancel my BFL order and go for a custom rig.

Lol,I tried ordering 3 singles just the day when the price went up @1299 but they mentioned I would have to go by the new pricing.I don't so.

I ordered a Japolino in late Feb 2012 (pun for Jalapeno ;)) and cancelled it in early April. BFL have so far been using delaying tactics and accepting pre-orders. Until I don't see BFL shipping ASIC miners, I will not bank my money on them.

They raised the price because they know they will have troubles delivering and don't want a big queue.  It's freaking common business sense.
Anyone who don't realise this and orders anyway is a real idiot who deserves losing his money.

At $265 per Bitcoin your only making $5 per day?  I think your calculations are a bit off.

Why don't you look at the day of my post, and the value around that time, genius.

Well it's a new post to me as I just found it.  But that would explain it.
