Title: Say I order a 5GH Jalapeno Jul 1, when do you think it will arrive at my door
Post by: goxed on June 30, 2013, 09:12:51 AM
Just wanted to see if it would make sense to order that Jally from BFL website for USD 308 soon.

Ordered the 25 GH/s Bitcoin Miner BF0025G for    $1,283.00, since it probably will use the same board(s) as the Jalapeņo, and a bunch of Jallys did ship a while back.

i dunno, it'd depend where you ordered it from i guess, since you dont specify

order one from a reputable (re)seller on ebay and it'd just be a few days probably

If you order today, most likely you will get it in Dec or Jan 2014. ONLY IF BFL maintains its production at current speed...
I ordered another 4 Jala after i got my first 2. Kinda predict it will reach at Dec 2013. *fingers crossing*

Is there no way BFL can pull up its socks and increase production rates?

Results skewed by lack of "Never" option in poll.  ;)

Since I hear that Paypal just froze their account and refuses to accept payments for them anymore, investigation pending, I say never.

EDIT:

Note that Paypal seems to have just disappeared as a method of payment for chip orders from BFL.  BTC or direct bank transfers only.

Guess there's strict no return policy on the chip orders. Paypal still on for devices though.

Where is some realistic date, like mid-2014, in this poll?

It took BFL about a year to start shipping the jalapenos and so far they have shipped about 50(?) of these units.

This is what's going on:

BFL "handcrafts" about 10 to 12 Jalapeno units a day.
As each unit is completed, they are lovingly installed on the "testnet" for Quality Control, never for profit.
This QC phase can last a few days/weeks/months, you know for your protection.
Each day, 10 to 12 Jalapeno units are shipped to "random" people, such as journalists and reviewers, and opinion influencers.

Don't hate me, I'm just being funny. But, there is a bit of truth in the jokes

The Butterfly never do good. I used to trust him to provide good solution as soon as possible. Now, it's failed, I have to find another way instead of after I have received the refund because of the butterfly's failures.

5G can't do the JOB, Get 200G pre-order from Europe Sam. I think ORSoc is doing the real thing.
