Title: Re: BFL ASIC STATUS Shipped Post by: Joshster on April 23, 2013, 01:23:35 AM Ah, I still don't really know why it costs 200 USD to ship one of those to the UK.

So those are 4.5 GH/s USB powered Jalapenos that people ordered, or are they baited and switched to some other inferior product?

I mentioned the goalpost shifting in another thread. "It's a scam because there's no ASICs" has become "It's a scam because they missed their power targets".

"It's a scam because there's no ASICs" has become "It's a scam because they missed their power targets". Nice way to downplay the bait-and-switch scam. They weren't just "targets". They were "honest abe", guaranteed, power levels. They didn't ship what they guaranteed they would ship. Classic Bait And Switch SCAM.

The thing is that the original 4.5GHs unit has become 5GHs (5.3GHS actually) and nobody gives a rats (except the critics) that it pulls 30watts. Some people care that the case is bigger, I like the cube shape myself, reminds me of the Borg.

Was thinking of you as soon as I saw this thread. Ur batch 3's are gonna get slaughtered. BFL is the least of my worries, I'm more worried about ASICMINER. Anyways, that's why I did the whole group buy thing... less risk on my side. If the Avalons don't make any money, I lose 7 BTC... big whoop. Nice try tho :P You've been a hater from day 1, I wouldn't expect you to change your tone: this is crazy. people cant give their money/btc fast enough to this guy... this has epic fail written all over it. i really hope your batch 3 shipments arrive well before bfl's 'product' tldr; btc NEVER goes down in price, avalon batch 3 will ship long before bfl, pep's have more dollars than cents. gl coinhorder, hope to never have to see that scammer tag under your handle...

Title: Re: BFL ASIC STATUS Shipped Post by: sunblaster on April 23, 2013, 02:53:43 AM 6 out of 33000 ;D We should get a post going "my Order# is" and "I received on date" to estimate their manufacturing throughput. I think it would be most scientific method since they really can't commit to any concrete estimates.

Quote Here is the currently estimated timeline, and while this is subject to change of course, it's pretty solid at this time. Completed items are crossed off: Week of January 13th Week of January 20th Final assembly facility prep - In progress Week of January 26th Leave for fab/bumping facility at the end of the week Week of February 3rd Final chips roll off the line Arrive at Bumping facility Chips Bumped Arrive California for Packaging (May spill into following week) Chips packaged Week of February 10th Packaged chips sent to assembly house Assembled PCB is set for final testing and MCU programming Notify users to start sending their FPGA units or BTC for trade in participants Bulk assembled PCBs arrive in KC, we start dropping PCBs into waiting units Boxing/labeling for shipment We implement the 1/3 shipping plan en mass 1/3 of our assembled units will go to new orders in FIFO 1/3 of our assembled units will go to upgrade orders 1/3 will be randomly selected from both groups We descend upon the Post Office like horde of angry locust. DHL, UPS and FedEx send trucks. Quote Indeed, you can be sure it won't be happening again if I have anything to say about it. The ship dates were announced before I came on board with BFL and going forward, unless I am explicitly overridden, we will not be making any shipping date commitments. It will be Valve time from here on out if I have my way. Looks like the PO is going to be overwhelmed by the swarm of locust. http://anonymouse.org/cgi-bin/anon-www.cgi/http://anonymouse.org/cgi-bin/anon-www.cgi/http://anonymouse.org/cgi-bin/anon-www.cgi/http://anonymouse.org/cgi-bin/anon-www.cgi/http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/6613/1wuo4.jpg http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m8e3fo8cFd1qafph8o1_500.gif Title: Re: BFL ASIC STATUS Shipped Post by: k9quaint on April 23, 2013, 03:14:09 AM But but but it's meant to be a scam!

You could have mined 50 BTC in that time with 5GH/s. Title: Re: BFL ASIC STATUS Shipped Post by: smoothie on April 23, 2013, 03:23:25 AM lol so BFL finally is delivering bait and switch products now 7 months late.
Go for it and pat yourselves on the back BFL. LOL Big Fucking Liars. anyone who paid with BTC in June 2012 for the MiniRig could have had $560,000 instead today had they just held BTC. BFL has reamed their customers despite shipping "A" product that missed power specs by multiple factors and late by 6+ months. so fail...but bask in your glory of goating BFL supporters lol. You know who you are. ROFL!

Have you not heard the expression "better late than never" A friend of mine bought a one bedroom apartment as an investment "off the plan" ie. when it was still a vacant block. He forked out hundreds of thousands of dollars sight unseen, the builders used the money to build the apparent block as expected,projected timelines were missed, it took years, but eventually it was completed, so he was happy. He could have argued that he missed out on rent for all that period it was being built. This is a pretty normal situation when you pre-order something that hasn't been built yet. Title: Re: BFL ASIC STATUS Shipped Post by: sunblaster on April 23, 2013, 03:32:11 AM Quote from: inaba It will be Valve time from here on out if I have my way. Funny but Valve time is not exactly a positive indicator: Valve Time: The expanded time Valve uses when talking about anything that will involve them working. Like a new york minute, but in reverse. The conversion factor is approximately 2-6 times whatever the stated interval is. So its official take whatever time was announced and multiply it by 2 to 6 times. ;D Title: Re: BFL ASIC STATUS Shipped Post by: witherworth on April 23, 2013, 03:40:55 AM Pics or it didn't happen (and not pics by BFL).

Hang on, minirig is doesn't exist yet, last announced was case redesign for a single, then the is the big single then the minirig. I would guess minirig prototype is 4-6 months away, so by then it could be $1million dollars!

If he was going to rent out the apartment, then he did indeed miss out quite a lot of money. Years of revenue lost. I hope your friend doesn't get ripped off like that again.

He could have argued that he missed out on rent for all that period it was being built. This is a pretty normal situation when you pre-order something that hasn't been built yet. I bought a house, off the plan, when it was still a vacant block of land. It was built and completed 2 months ahead of schedule. Your friend who bought an apartment off the plan reminds me of my friend who signed up years ago to build a block of apartments through a spruiking/high pressure sales company. They were offering to pay my friend 20% interest on money they borrowed from him and to give him a discount on an apartment. I asked 'why doesn't the builder just go to a bank and get money much cheaper?' *crickets* My friend has remained very silent about the deal ever since. I suspect the whole project fell over and my friend lost all his money. That's the risk one takes when preordering a product that doesn't exist yet. Heck, if BFL fell over before my order was shipped there is nothing I can do about it. PayPal doesn't care, BFL is in a different country and just filing papers in US courts would cost more than my order ever did. Title: Re: BFL ASIC STATUS Shipped Post by: n4ru on April 23, 2013, 04:46:24 AM They shipped 6 units of an bait-and-switch inferior product, 6 months late, that is at least 10 times weaker than other products that have already made it to market.
The only people who will even potentially make their money back will be the first people to receive these devices.

Typically what happens in the case of an apparentness block, the developers don't get sales as fast as they predicted, to be assured of the funds to start the project, so they wait for more sales until they have enough to feel comfortable to proceed. This is common across all sorts of industries, not just dwellings. If you have a contract that includes performance clauses then you might have some recourse for compensation, however I don't see anything like that for pre-ordering bits of electronics.

Smoothie, why are you being so cruel to BFL customers? Was everyone screaming bloody murder that BFL was going to be 7 months late on their delivery when they were accepting BTC preorders? Everyone putting any money into any mining venture is taking a risk. Sometimes those risks don't reap rewards. disclaimer: i haven't put any BTC into any of my mining-related activities, except maybe some stuff from cablesaurus.

Of course trollfest will continue until they start shipping customer stuff(and probably farrrrr after)

THere is a thread with the unboxing on it.
I am pretty sure they will try to move more jally's out the door this week or next - but i think that is the only model they will be shipping at the moment due to technical difficulties. I wish i had ordered at least 2 or 3 of them in addition to the singles - but hindsight is 20/20 and i knew it would likely be this way with BFL. The whole ASIC adventure (?) has been very entertaining to watch on the forums.. Title: Re: BFL ASIC STATUS Shipped Post by: minternj on April 23, 2013, 05:16:47 PM I see boxes with shipping labels.

Perhaps I will not have to write-off my BFL pre-order after all. At least they have a working product, not yet up to their initial expectations but, it is a working product. I have no more idea of an expected delivery date, just a little more convinced that there will be be one at some stage.

No one is arguing, BFL have royally screwed up, mis-management, poor decisions no doubt, but I doubt it was wilful, its very easy to be a smart arse after the event. The point of my post was for anyone who is still waiting on a pre-order from BFL, this is good news, there were rumours that BFL were a complete scam and they had no intention of ever delivering an ASIC device, everything was smoke and mirrors and they were just stringing everyone along until they did a runner.

You mean the "closed case" with the airflow slots across the bottom and the fan that's as bit as a 65watt core 2 duo fan, maybe bigger?

Title: Re: BFL ASIC STATUS Shipped Post by: CaptChadd on July 20, 2013, 01:10:57 PM We all know that BFL will ship all of their 5GH's miners before any major movement of the larger miners, otherwise if they didn't they would be delivering 5GH/s miners that would be worthless do to the difficulty rise made by the larger miners they shipped at the same time.
I think once all the 5GH miners get shipped, then they with move onto the 25 GH/s miners mainly and work from there up, otherwise it makes no business sense.

Shipping Jalepeno orders from November and still shipping first day Single orders makes no sense to me. Nobody would of ordered a Single if they knew Jalepeno's were gonna go first.

Nobody would of ordered a Single if they knew Jalepeno's were gonna go first. Think of all the people who upgraded their Jalapenos to Singles. They upgraded with the promise that their order wouldn't be delayed. |
