3 hours ago, I purchased 5 Antminer S1 Units.
I went back to purchase more, and it looks like they're all sold out!!

Am I the only one seeing this?

I think it has more to do with

this and the cause of it all was the St Patrick's Day (and beyond) crash of blockchain.info/wallets   BTW it has also caused a drop in bitcoin price to just under 590 usd a coin.

I still have plenty stock for EU buyers and worldwide for the low custom fee service 990 units instock!

You can always order from Ninjatech.org (http://Ninjatech.org), 112bit.com (http://112bit.com), or Minersource.net (http://Minersource.net) if you don't want to wait for Bitmain's site.

Quite good supplier (with hosting option):

I purchased two from them, paid in BTC, and now the order states it's expired. I've emailed twice and haven't heard nothing back.

  the wallets were down for 2 days.  they must have a real mess on their hands.  100x just you.

when you paid the block chain was working .  but blockchaininfo wallets were dead.    so every order placed went through the block chain.   but with the wallet dead for them and many others they auto cancelled your order.  be patient I figure  2 or 3 days for the fix.

I also purchased 2, around the same time, and was freaking out cause blockchain.info was showing unconfirmed.. I emailed them about it.. showed them the transaction.. they've manually changed my order from Expired to Paid and Valid, and its now just waiting to ship.. Hopefully it'll ship out soon..

I ordered FIVE S1 UNITS. THEY STILL HAVE NOT CONFIRMED IT AS PAID.
I''ve contacted them via Email... No response.

I ordered 2 on March 16th and paid but never received a confirmation email.  I could see on their website that payment had gone through so I contacted them and they said everything was fine.  I received the 2 units today. Unfortunately the PSU from Amazon hasn't shipped yet :(

It would be nice if they refunded my fucking accidental double payment to them on an order too!
Its been 2 fucking weeks now and apparently its in the hands of the "accountant"

Available again. And another pricedrop. 0.938btc now.

Has anyone received after that? Or even get a UPS tracking number?

I have a confirmed paid order for 0.938 btc  as for tracking not yet.

Just posted up some ANTs a few hours ago and someone instantly accepted my original offer. AWESOME !

Where?

How long will he continue to produce them??

Looks like they have good sales on S1.
I believe they wont stop unless they replace with something newer? (maybe 28nm sometime?)

S2 is a different product.

i dont like the s2 too big as one unit

You have to see the dragon , then.

 :o

How bad is it ?? and for what price ??

Lol is not bad for a 1THs machine, but it is also huge.

The price is good , 5.42BTC the time we talk at their website lketc.com.

I have ordered 3 but I have no other experience from them.

That sounds good!! how long is delivery time??? And watt/GH

The coming batch is leaving on 28 March.

The watt/Ghs is  less than 1 as they claim. Or 800W for 1000Gh/s. Its 28nm.

Thats better than a bunch of ant s1 if you look at both power and gh/s

Yes since they are 28nm.

Lets see them then.

Why is the LKetc Dragon being discussed in this thread?  Please don't associate an unknown company with no proven track record of delivering to paying customers in a BitMain thread.

The Dragon is an A1 clone that's has only been delivered to "reviewers".

Yes, you are right.
But since it is a bitmain thread, why you mention this?   :







.

I have bought two from them, from two different batch - and everything was/is OK.

Yes but the thread started regarding the unavailability of bitmain products.
We mentioned lketc.com as an alternative Chinese new direct competitor to Bitmain.

We did not say lketc.com is the same as bitmain. Nor we ever said it is a reliable place to buy miners safely.

We just share information relevant to the op's initial request.

Just an FYI...I ordered my first S1 from BitMain Friday evening ET. I did send a note with webmaster@bitmaintech.com with my order ID and BTC transaction info after their site showed the order as "expired".  On Saturday the payment showed, but the order was "unshipped". As of now their site still shows it as unshipped, but MyUPS shows the unit Shipped this morning with an ETA of Wednesday. No Email or other response from BitMain, but they are doing exactly what I would do...getting the orders cleared and out the door ASAP rather than responding to emails. Hope this helps.

EDIT:  BitMain site now shows unit as shipped as of 13:00 ET Monday 3/24/14.  I did receive and automated email letting me know it shipped.

I wish I could get my hands on that "too big as one unit" :-)
More efficient than my little S1. The S1 has been a solid miner.
It looks like they are available again @ .918
