Post by: grue on April 09, 2013, 01:07:31 PM you probably "bought" a preorder, so you'll be getting it whenever BFL starts to ship (hint: not anytime soon)

Post by: CIYAM on April 09, 2013, 01:09:36 PM you probably "bought" a preorder, so you'll be getting it whenever BFL starts to ship (hint: not anytime soon) BFL??? The OP was about Avalon. And OP - you cannot get an Avalon for 20 BTC (the going price is well over 100 BTC now) so I think unfortunately you might have lost your BTC (although I hope not and if you haven't sent any then *don't*). Title: Re: Just won Avalon ASICs auction for 20 BTC... Post by: ragingazn628 on April 09, 2013, 01:11:17 PM I have no sent any BTC yet. That's why I posted here first. On the site it did said escrow is required so I just want to know how to proceed so that I won't get scammed lol

Post by: CIYAM on April 09, 2013, 01:20:01 PM If you choose to use escrow then I would recommend John K member of this forum - but understand that even batch #1 Avalon was not 20 BTC so it would really make very little sense for someone to auction off an Avalon legit for 20 BTC.
Title: Re: Just won Avalon ASICs auction for 20 BTC... Post by: yxt on April 09, 2013, 01:20:38 PM you pay to escrow... the seller conact you with a story about why he need the coins now...
want you to give the coins free before you got your avalon... link to the auction? 100% scam Title: Re: Just won Avalon ASICs auction for 20 BTC... Post by: grue on April 09, 2013, 01:24:48 PM anyone notice the price was "20.003"? (note the number of digits after the dot) it looks like european notation for 20,000 BTC
