I think Avalon B1 owners made a killing. Rest all struggling to recover back investment.

batch 2

based on BTC -(spent 60BTC to buy unit) broke even, just started making profit.
based on FIAT (due to big price rise since february order) in profit kind of. although i spent $1000 worth of BTC, the well over 60BTC i have generated from avalon is worth more then $7k

This. Even the people who made money from mining would have made more buying BTC directly and holding it. Only Avalon B1 has been profitable in terms of BTC in and BTC out.

B2 has barely ROI'd for many.  Remember some ordered B2 for 54 BTC, and those rigs arrived with less than a quarter of the current diff...

So in that sense yes, the real answer is only first day or batch orders really made anything.

Its too bad BFL is inept, and Avalon let all the chips walk out the back door...  

Thanks to their efforts to "maintain early investor ROI".   ::)

To all those people buying chips today that haven't even "taped out" yet, in two months they will be re-living the BFL/Avalon fun of the past year...

Actually a Batch2 Wave 1 unit has brought in BTC 97 and cost BTC 72
A Batch2 Wave 2 unit has brought in BTC 82 and cost BTC 54

It's the Batch3 orders that got really screwed due to the many delays

I made almost $1800 selling my Little Single.  And I got to mine with it for 2 weeks.

So that worked out ok.  :)

How many BTC could you have bought with the cash at the time of order?
