July 2nd now. Still no tracking number (despite being "In Stock")

I can't disagree with you in the least, and as a buyer of ASIC's, I know the market is turbulent.

My threshold of pain (or where I cry "foul") is crossed when an order is placed and the item price is reduced before it ships.

...Call me crazy, but that's how I see it.

It's also why I will never again participate in a pre-order scenario.

I did once and got very lucky with a KNC November Jupiter, but I managed to avoid BFL, Hashfast, Cointerra, Bitmine, and BlackArrow. 

I empathize with every single customer of those companies who most likely are like me and scraping together every last bit of their "fluff" income to try to make a penny or two in this world where markets are untrustworthy, banks pay next to nothing in interest, and everywhere you turn someone is trying to con another $2-20 out of you. Those guys got burned and badly.

I'm sitting on 12Th/s and consider myself a small player in this game, but it's the small guys who need to keep the vendors and manufacturers honest if there is going to be a future in widespread decentralized cryptographic currency networks. Any other way, and we'll all get forced out by the fortune 500 players - permanently.

The only way we can do this as the little guy, is to speak with our voices, our dollars, and our BTC.

WOW!

I am impressed!

Zoomhash made this right, and refunded the difference in my order... Honestly, I couldn't ask for more.

I've ordered from them previously and never had any complaints on follow through. So I expect the remainder to go smoothly.

Aside from the delay in shipping I can expect from the 4th of July, I'm going to chalk this one up as an excellent deal. I already have tracking data from the order, but it looks like I probably won't receive my unit until the following week because of the holiday.

Thank you Zoomhash! You could have easily gone the route other resellers have and said, "Tough Luck" but you didn't, and I will certainly keep that fact in mind the next time I'm looking to make a purchase.

Sincerely,

The price might have been closer to being acceptable if it were only a day past May 31st (as indicated in the picture)

but here we are one day after June 30, and I estimate the value of this miner to be:

[intentionally left blank]

The name in the picture doesn't match either...

Yes but you could compensate your customers during the following situation to keep them from feeling 'ripped off':

1. Customer orders $2175 miner + shipping on 6/29
2. Next day - 6/30 no shipping status "Awaiting Fulfillment"
3. Following day - 7/1 price drop of $175.00 announced and posted on site
4. 7/1 several hours after price drop announced, tracking information received.

Doesn't really make me want to come back ZOOMhash for more, despite being a "ZOOM Founder"

Nor have I seen any way to use "Reward Points"

And now most likely due the 4th of July holiday, I won't see this purchase until the week of 7 July

Totally satisfied Michael -- NOT!!

If I'd have received tracking information prior to the price drop, my perspective would be different.

Referencing Order #6439

This situation was rectified by the seller... See post later in the thread.

I looked at that for about .2 seconds

Definitely agree it is priced less per Mh/s but doesn't fit my scenario here very well.

Power consumption is insane, the device is huge and it screams like a banshee. I can fix the noise issue with replacement fans, but there are a lot better things I'd rather be doing with a kilowatt (920W to be precise) of electricity.

I actually sleep in the same room as some of my miners. Pretty sure these silverfish will be a nice small power efficient addition to my collection. I've heard they're noisy with the stock fans, but I have some replacements coming which most likely will show up before the miners do.

WTF??

Referencing order #6439. With a 10% drop in price while my order is processing, the least you could do is refund shipping charges.
The best you could do is refund the difference. Throw in a Blizzard... Ridiculous.

Excellent new price though.

YES!! The feeling of vindication!! 
I almost wrote a snide reply to the melodramatic response, but I am just a lowly full member and how could I possibly challenge the wisdom of a hero member? Thank you Jimrome!

The extra bit about moving the data cable to isolate the problem is sage advice too, kicking myself for not thinking to add that when I replied.

It would be good for the Original Poster to reply to the thread with a status update.

@Bitmain

How about dropping the price on the S2 so that it is comparable to S3 pricing with respect to BTC per GH/s??

@ Bitmain

I'm ready to buy upgrade boards for my S2's

@ Bitmain:  Standing by to purchase S1 Upgrade boards.

That did the trick.

So the Chinese version of this software is up to version 3.04 any chance we can get an updated English version?

Ok, I'm game... just bought one... Order # 5088

The download link for the English version of the software on the product page doesn't work.

Hope you can get this to me soon.. Sold my Gblades and miss mining scrypt.

22.5/.75 = 30 ... Genius, and yes there is still money to be made off of people who can't do math.

You can get the G-Black directly from the authorized reseller X-hash.com.

I had bad luck with Lightningasic and will never consider buying from them again.

Try disconnecting then reconnecting the cable that goes from the controller board to each blade. I had one shipped to me with one of these cables loose and it made it appear initially as if one of the blades was non-responsive. Re-seating the cables brought the second blade back to life.

1. Turn off
2. Redo cables
3. Turn on
4. Cross fingers.

Gonna keep my BTC and sit this one out... Hope all you early buyers make millions off of these S-3's. I'll be waiting for them to work the bugs out like they had to with the S2's.

Placed an order for a $400 G-Blade on Saturday 21, June. Had tracking information by Monday. G-blade was
in the US ready for delivery on Wednesday. Unfortunately I didn't get the shipment Wednesday because of a mix-up with the zip code (postal code). Called DHL and contacted X-hash. X-hash contacted DHL to correct the postal code issue. I had my G-Blade by Saturday 28 June.

It is among the best packaged miner I've received to date. Double cardboard box with the inner box wrapped in bubble wrap. Had it up and running within 30 minutes of unpacking.

I'd go back to buy more G-blades without hesitation, but I think I want something bigger. The G-Black is enticing, but it is huge compared to some of the other offerings out there. I'd almost rather have 5 Gblades than a G-Black and the price isn't enough to compel me to go the other way yet.

I'm very pleased with my purchase of the G-blade @ $400 and I wish I'd have ordered two vice one... Saving my pennies now for something bigger in scrypt or hopefully an S-3 SHA 256 miner.

I'll follow up with pics tomorrow... very late here now.

I will kick this off with a bid of .05 BTC.
