If your entire batch is so small (like asian penis...) when there are LOTS of people like me who would spend 5 grand or so on MORE ... to just close it out like this ... not smart.
He could be making a LOT more money.
Stop sucking his balls.
Wussy.
Someone ready the banhammer...

(considering there's some new FPGAs being released in the next 8 weeks which may be better purchases)
Which other ones are you waiting for? I'm asking because I can either buy more than one Single now, or spread out the purchases and hope to take advantage of the competition between vendors. I assume there will be better and better stuff coming out from a variety of vendors. Mainly Lancelot (the successor to Icarus) by ngzhang

I'd really like to know when the huge backlog of orders waiting to be shipped is going to be cleared. This is the number one reason why I haven't placed my order yet.

PS I'd rather have a "as-cheap-and-barebones-as-possible" FPGA.
No fancy screens or built in ethernet or cgminer. Just a bare FPGA board that I can connect with USB.
Ztex? Nanominer seems like it's going to be a cheaper option than ztex is unless I'm looking at it wrong

yeah those are boring questions which are in the forums
Well I heard it was 6 months warranty but I wanted it confirming by them first. Also the delivery times which BFL say (4-6 weeks?) and the forums say (2-3 months?) vary wildly so I was hoping to get some kind of solid estimation of that also.

I've had 3 since I ordered yesterday, but maybe he likes to answer order emails quicker. Did you rant or ask a lot of questions?
No doubt! I asked two questions about warranty and delivery times. So no, not really.

Sonny is so nice in the emails tho. He really needs to hire someone off odesk tho asap.
I haven't had a reply to my email yet so I wouldn't know...

Wow, they are clueless, they are losing on $2,400 here
You make me laugh. There are people lined up down the street, pre-paying for something that will take forever to arrive (as of now), and have ordered so many that they are already on rev3, and you think your non-order will affect something? Not to mention those that have already plunked down 25, 60, 100+k for rig boxes. Any business that neglects smaller customers and only focusing on taking orders for larger customers will eventually fail. You're forgetting they're missing out on all the smaller customers that would become possible bigger customers that order more products like the rig box. Their customer service is appauling and they're losing out on money. Simple as that. ~$4k isn't exactly pocket change even if a couple of people have already pre-ordered rig boxes...

Correct, 6 months warranty. 100% more than the other FPGA offerings, but not quite as long as your GPU's unfortunately. There's less that can fail though, so that's good Thanks, that's true. But the longer the warranty, the better!
|
|
|
Has this/will this be fixed soon?
Ask BFL. But until now they didn't seem to care at all? It'd be in their best interests to fix it, as I'm not purchasing until they do, so that's about $1300 they're losing out on atleast. Hopefully it won't take long (unfortunately I can't say the same about their delivery times...)

I've never been a customer of them, but I'd expect there at least should be some kind of guarantee, i.e. no DOA.
For new electronics, 14~30 day return/refund, 1 year warranty are kind of "standard".
Yes, I thought so too. But I can't see anything of that on their website. I sent them an email but they haven't got back to me.

I've heard that the BFL single doesn't work with P2Pool as it produces about 50% rejected shares, which is insanely high.
Proof or Proof from someone with a BFL Single running it on p2pool without 50% rejected shares would be better...
|
|
|
Is BFL a UK company? US? or Chinese?
It says their address is in the US
|

Hi all.
Does anyone know if the BFL Single comes with any warranty/guarantee or if there's a returns policy at all? Also how long it is if any? Also does anyone know how long it takes them to ship a BFL Single to the UK?
Couldn't find any info about this on their website, so I'm not even sure if I should trust them if they say they have a warranty when they could disappear at any time.
Thanks

Will you be able to post to the United Kingdom? If so, put me down for one!

Sorry to put a massive downer on this but the majority of computer users won't have a clue what to do with this wallet.dat file and will likely just delete it and sell the USB stick instead.
A lot of computer users have trouble copying and pasting files into anywhere other than My Documents on Windows. I think a lot of people on this forum are forgetting this when they come up with some of their creative ideas.
Not to mention after reading "there is money in data form on this USB drive" most people will probably think it's a scam or completely bogus as they only think of money as physical items such as coins or notes.

I'm sure the less-than-20 BFLs that are actually out in the wild are making a HUGE difference. some people ordering 10+, which is going to make difficulty shoot higher Read the original post please... Exactly. Think Pokedex, but for Bitcoin
This sounds interesting... Some kind of business directory/general knowledgebase for Bitcoin I assume. But most of that is already available on the Wiki anyway. Hmm..
