We highly encourage you to seek out our competition and inflict yourself upon them at your earliest opportunity.
Let me help you with that. BFL: 230 GH/s for $4255, may ship soon, $18.5 per GH/s. Bitmain: 180 GH/s for $1586 (1.9 btc @ $835), ships within days, $8.8 per GH/s. Winner by a huge margin, Bitmain. |

You mean discounting the fact that Hashfast is less late than KnC is at the moment? KnC promised summer delivery and didn't ship until the middle of October.
KnC: Summer ended Sept 21, delivered mid Oct. Lets say 3 weeks late. HashFast: "Ships Oct 20-30", still hasn't delivered mid January. Lets say 3 months late and counting. "Hashfast is less late than KnC is." Wow. No wonder BFL is always late. You don't understand the difference between days, weeks, and months! |

+1. when the price drop happened, it was enough for me to justify a small purchase. however, they need to come down another 20% before I go out and buy full rigs.
Bitmains are well under $9/gh. I think these need a 30% price drop now. |

Ya? A shill for what company? NONE OF THEM ARE DELIVERING!!!!!!
Bitfury and Bitmain are in-stock and delivering very fast. |

The proof will be in March/April or is it May/June... remember no refunds or real timelines we have to stick to here because it is all just an ESTIMATE. My prediction here they fail to find an EASY solution for cooling it and 600 gh/s is just a dream. Got those chips packaged yet? Tested? Binned? Working PCB? No? Good luck waiting for this to drop it is going to take a lot longer than Slok or Inaba figures. It is already 3 months late.
3 months? Yup, from October to January is already 3 months, and they don't have a working chip yet. They'll be much later than 3 months before they ship anything. |

Neptunes are still very much in the preliminary design phase.
Ugh. This statement does not inspire confidence for shipping Neptunes by end of Q1  Q1 was never a possibility. Ever. |

Gulp! You may have a point, Josh.
No, he doesn't. The huge problem with Hashfast is they are sending forced USD refund checks to customers who did not request a refund, but they were promised BTC refunds. It is wrong is so many ways. |

Everyone that gets a 1.2 miner will more that double their investment (and that's at current pricing).
Keep dreaming. |

Went in yesterday to BFL and they said they should be shipping by beginning of Feb. I guess we will see.
Did they say, "Honest Abe!"? |
|
|

Dude that's not cool. K, you were right. But don't rub it in. Clenell, I feel for you too. Honestly I think the best way to get a miner is on eBay. Preorders are so unnatural, unethical, and uncalled for. Nobody should sell a product that they do not have in stock.
There are several vendors that are selling from stock, Bitfury and Bitmain to name two good ones. |

They didn't leave it running.
Yeah, why? Overheated? Chip fried? Hashing failed? Caps blew? For a device that needs to run 24/7/365, the fact that they only had it running for mere minutes on Eligius is highly troubling. |
|
|
|
LOL. "March batch". ROFLMAO. No order placed with BFL now is going to be delivered in March. |
|
|
|
|
It's very strange that no one has been able to product the working stats page from Eligius. This is a strong indication that there are problems and they are unable to leave the unit running.

That's the reason I asked it. This is actually a good newbie thread. They can see why people have the reaction that they do. Questions about actual products are ignored, but personal attacks are engaged with fervor. If I were looking to invest in a company's products would I invest in a company who's C-Level executives act in such a manner? Probably not.
And in the interest of full disclosure for the newbies, we need to point at that Inaba is actually a senior level executive at BFL that posts under a pseudonym rather than his official Bitcointalk account so that he can try to avoid linking his vitriol with the official company name and continue to shill for them. BFL is the same company that is chronically late with all their product releases. |

So... 300 GH/s at $2800 delivered in Mid March or most likely a lot later for anyone ordering today at the cheaper price?
That is over $9 gh/s for the card not including psu, casing, hosting and our favorite EXPEDITED shipping, in Mid March if you were first to order or "upgraded".
Let's see, $9/GH for something delivered several months from now, or $10/GH (Bitmain) delivered next week. I don't like calling people names, but you'd have to be a blooming idiot to order from BFL! |

Bitmain just dropped their prices to 2.2 BTC for 180 GH/s. Dave, don't let them get away with all the orders. Time to drop the prices again!

Really? 8 days late? You received your order last summer? It was my understanding they shipped in October and promised shipping in summer... amazing that you were the only person to receive their unit sometime last summer while everyone else had to wait until October. You must have quite an "in" over there in KnC land.
Yes, KnC was a several days late, but delivered extra hashrate. How much extra hashrate are Monarchs going to have that are will be several months late? |
