Title: BFL Upgraders, are they automatically included in the initial 1/3 ASIC shipping?
Post by: Paladin69 on June 27, 2012, 03:15:06 AM
If you chose the *upgrade* option and have equipment or are still waiting on equipment...are you automatically included in the initial 1/3 of ASIC units that BFL says they will ship out all at once when they are ready?

If true, I have 4 singles I am willing to sell if someone wants my place in line.  I ordered at the end of April and it sounds like their orders are all caught up through mid-April and shipped out.  So I'm part of the next batch being created I would assume.

Will you accept $2700 for the 4 FPGA Singles?

I'm curious about his as well. I've had a single on order since middle of May, and they said I could upgrade my order to a SC Single. I would like to know if my upgraded Single will go out in the first batch or not. I wasn't one of the first to pre-order a SC Single, but they've had my BTC for a month before the pre-orders were even available. If I'm NOT in the first batch, then that means I will have spent my BTC, and not seen any product for ~6 months.

BFL, any comment on how this is gonna work?

My primary concern is if Sonny over at BFL can facilitate this.  I do not have his contact info at this time and Jody has yet to get back to me.  If someone could PM me his contact info (if they don't want to publicly post it here) that would be awesome.

We can facilitate unless it was a PayPal transaction which we have to ship to the registered address to comply with PayPal merchant terms.  In this case, you'd just need to forward the goods.

That portion was a paypal purchase.  But the buyer whom I transfer to can still take my place in the first 1/3 line?  Are all upgraders included in the initial 1/3 shipments?

It shouldn't cost more than $25 to reship 4 Singles together, nor take more than a few days within the USA (I am, are you?). I'm still interested, if you decide to go that route.

Obviously I am going with the highest bidder because there is a benefit if people get into the "first served" 1/3 ASIC upgraders club.  But that is the very question.

Interesting idea. Let me know how it works out after you have sold yours. I have 10 units that I ordered that might be available after these have sold.
