My answer... 0.1%
But then again, I haven't been following BA very closely. I do know that they have delivered FPGAs in the past. But so did bASIC & BFL. And we all remember how that turned out, right?
And their promised specs and price are just so far out of line with the rest of their legitimate competitors. The big 3 of the second tier, HashFast, Cointerra and BlackArrow, got into a pissing match for preorder dollars and I think they all over-promised. And I have a strong feeling that they will all under-deliver (specs and time) if they deliver at all. Between the 2nd tier and 3rd tier (BitMine.ch, VMC, AMT) I think we'll have at least one or two "bASIC" situations.
Btw, this should have been a poll.
I think their odds are better than 0.1%, IMHO. But then again: I've been following them much closer than the average miner and our co-op is the exclusive GB sales outlet for x-3 Prosperos having previously helped them do a 3.3TH/s Bullet Run of Prospero prototypes based on Bitfury chips (instead of Minions) in Rounds 9-12. (x-posted from the CH forum) Updates straight from bobsag3 in Hong Kong visiting Black Arrow: Can you say miner pr0n?

Lol It's like anything else, people get complacent.. A flyer advertises cheap lettuce, so people go there for the lettuce, and also buy the tomato, not realizing they have the most expensive tomato's. Ebay is the same way. everyone just assumes it's the cheapest. ( I order a lot of smaller crap off there lol) But in need items, such as these, get jacked, and ignorant ebayer's just assume they are cheap |

Sent enough for 4 meals, would of sent more but that was the last of my on hand BTC, no transfer code as I sent off my phone but 0.0069 sent. only $5 but do what I can
Okay People it's december. You may not be an x-mas person (I'm not) but it's cold out and it's a time to be nice not greedy.
Some of you SOB (Only cause I'm not one..) Turned a hell of a profit in the recent week's bitcoin jump. So give some back to those who need it!
I'll send more as I get more moved over. $1.25 to feed someone is nothing. Wish we could do that here! |

Post this here as it's horribly noobish of me for not knowing. But I've never had to do it. I've decided to cash in one of my paper wallets. I have the two QR code's. I'm trying to find a phone app I can use to scan both, verify and send them elsewhere. Everything I seem to find just makes me a wallet, it won't let me scan the backup wallet and key? Anyone got advice? thank You |

Sigh.. You placed an order for what you thought it was, maybe you left your order page open for 10 minutes and it went up so your account is waiting to buy BTc at $729. but by the time you clicked buy they were no longer selling that low. You could simply leave it alone and hope the price drops back down to your range or lower and the system will buy it for you. or you cancel and rebuy at the current rate. This is how trading work's, you can be off by 30 seconds, and .0001 BTC on pricing and the order will just sit.. Thinks you need to learn how it works  |

insurance provider's don;t use your $100 a year contribution ot pay you out...
They bet on the fact, that 10 million people are paying $100 and that only a few of them a year actually require the use. generating profit. Something like Katrina hit's and insurance companies pay out more than they have and boom. gone.
This whole process is silly..

For someone so well invested and back, looking for 30BTC seems phishy. TF is that you ? |

They do ,simple ,
Take butterfly labs they take your money build the rigs ,mine till difficulty get reasonably high then ship them to the customer ,very successful scam .
Well I think what they did was what I mentioned but used all the initial profits to buy their own rigs, than once they were established they got more in for customers. dont think anyone got a dusty rig |

Very tempted to buy one of these, even just to flip on ebay lol. But hmm. I may let it run in a cool spot in the basement as well for ever... Decisions.. decisions...
I really with HW salesmen would take paypal, offer's buyer protection and if your providing a physical product your safe. Just makes the whole damn community look shady.
Ack nevermind you lost me on the €60 shipping, for a thumbstick..

You are doing a HW GB.. You are buying a %. The organizer/host will say its worth 100 shares for example, he sells 75 at a rate that covers the machine, and divides out X amount to share holder and keeps a % for themselves, for the work/time. hosting fee's are covered etc. It's a fairly reliable working method. especially if you don't know how to repair etc. it saves time money hassle. Finding a reliable source though... Dislexi, I sent a pm to the organizer of your x-3 about buying out an entire unit. hope to hear back |

Dont think them fools. They dont have millions to invest, or they don't want to. some guys on here could afford to buidlt here own farms lol. They take your pre orders, and if they are smart use each sale to buy 1.5-2 units and keep one for themselves. They make us pay for their hardware Plus it's a quick reliable buck, with no recourse to refund and they can take their sweet ass time producing hardware. No other sale's companies int he world could pull what these guy's get away with |

Can't believe y'all are giving this guy such a hard time for his website. He's only had one day to do everything. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=128635.msg3851937#msg3851937At least he got the essentials right: 600G PCIe card "labs" in his 'company' name He's obviously learning from the best. Now all he needs is a fluttery name for his 'product'. Emperor? Dictator? King? He said "i ordered my PCIE card 2 weeks ago", that website was created 2 days ago, how can you order from a website if it dosent exist 2 weeks ago, whats hard to understand? Lmao, This thread was good, you made my day  |

Jacking the price on us, because we can jack it on someone else is not the way tod o it. sell for a real price. or put it on ebay.
I'd actually buy a few at a decent price
