Nice site you've built up there, I am very interested in this solar panel product, however do you think your average person could handle the installation? Are any other accessories like converters, etc needed? Or is it all in the box? Let me know, thanks!

Ive been doing a lot of reading about bitcoins and Ive come to find the concept incredible and especially so because of the time we live in. Im about to jump into this world, regardless of profit, and I ask of you all how you acquired your first bitcoin and at what cost?

Another question: where do you find yourself with bitcoins, an enthusiast, a trader, an exchanger, or a service/ good provider?   

Thank you for your insight, Im just trying to find were I belong in this niche! 

I got my first couple of bit cence from the Bit coin faucet.  Smiley

I got some from the Faucet, and then I joined deepbit's pool and endured ambient temperatures 20*F higher than normal, for a week, mining away on my Desktop, to get one little coin!

As someone new to this forum, is that title community sourced, or did he manually set it to be SCAMMER as a joke? I can't tell..

I don't think it can go past whatever PayPal's limit is, which I assume would be around 180 days, I could be wrong tho.

Paypal is 42 days (WHY?), CC can be as low as 60 days . Depending on the contract.

I always wondered where they came up with that number of 42.... it seems pretty off the wall.

They will be if you can get your hands on them quickly enough. Otherwise, it's going to be a nice conversation piece for the kids when they are digging through the garage and find a gargantuan box with a bunch of fans, which looks eerily similar to a computer, but is simply not quite a computer. 1.75 jiggawatts

Let's just say you are better off developing your own free bitcoins site, than using the ones out there.

A very interesting website which I have been QUITE impressed by thus far. I might be a newb on this forum but I am quite versed in the financial products world, web development, etc, and I must applaud James (of lightbox.ca) for the incredible project he has put together. I was able to secure some units of the S.DICE pass through fund and all in all it was a very pleasurable experience. I sent funds from my MTGOX account to the funding address and was literally able to buy stock within 15 minutes. It was that fast. Cheers to these Canadian friends, I am excited to watch their site grow as more and more offerings come online.

The ability for us average people to invest in such cool money spinning projects like S.DICE, or any other website potentially for that matter, is innovation of the first tier. I can imagine a world where Webmasters regularly IPO their web properties for BTC.

It will be really interesting to see when BFL can bring to market. I can only imagine the load everyone is dealing with trying to bring these to market. Human ingenuity at its finest!

Have you received anything back yet?

Still have not received any email / order confirmation / receipt or anything of that sort.

From what I gather they are going to be canceling all the incorrect orders, which will probably bring a fair amount of supply back for the batch, in which case, maybe they will have another launch sale when all the kinks are worked out to sell the rest?

Well that was brutal to say the least! I can't post in the ASIC thread due to newbie restrictions, but, considering the amount of money people were putting into this, you'd think any rational person (hell I didn't sleep last night) would just stay up and make sure things went smoothly, I mean 900 grand is no small sum of money. Anyways, launch was supposed to be 9:00 am EST, the "Yes I understand the fine print" button finally linked up to the store.avalon-asics url at 9:30.

And to everyones chagrin it was nearly impossible to add the items to your cart, session info was all messed up, people were seeing other people's shipping details. WalletBit was immediately AFK, and was failing hard on converting the posted price data to bitcoin... pricing the machines at 0.05 bitcoin each.

Finally, some intellectual realized that the Avalon guys were hosting the ecommerce across multiple domains (the pagoda base) which was merking all likelihood of cookies/sessions working out, so the trick was to go to the Pagoda URL, add to your cart, and then instead of clicking check out, manually entering the ?page_id=17 to the pagoda URL, at which point, with a little luck, everything worked out and WalletBit quoted the correct price.

Good luck to all, I don't begrudge these young men for this rough launch, and I can't imagine what is going on in the minds of those two fellows at this moment, but either way it's clear they are not web developers. Which is fine, so long as they deliver, or I at least get an email receipt for the 75.63785 + 0.05 bitcoins I just sent them.
