Anyone else get the impression that 99.9% of the people on this forum just google whatever people are talking about and then haphazardly throw buzzwords around just to be part of the conversation?

I haven't used it in a long time, I guess they might have actually made some positive changes for once.

On the listings that didn't pay, you can give the second highest bidder a second chance offer and see if they'll buy it. You don't need to pay an additional listing fee (last time I checked) and the price is usually only a few bucks lower than the winning bid.
Long time eBay power seller here: do not use the second chance offer option. It will turn in to an ordeal and just end up wasting as much or more time than re-listing. The person you offer the item to will even accuse you of trying to scam them somehow. Not worth the hassle. And you won't even get the satisfaction of hitting anyone else with an unpaid item after you're still sitting on your capital a week later. |

seller sends item first, scammer doesnt pay. doesnt always work though if the seller is not completely retarded and waits for payment first , which protects himself from falling hook line and sinker
fixed. |

There is an option you can select that will prevent buyers with 0 feedback from bidding on ur items.
Nope. Not since they decided "fuck anyone that's selling things." Can only block -1 feedback buyers now (which can't actually happen anymore to pure buyers so it's completely pointless). |

Yet nobody is going to the AG about bASIC. That's a little odd, isn't it? Not sure I follow. bASIC didn't open for pre-order until much later. And if you compare the timelines, BitcoinINV should have gone to the AG about bASIC about 2 weeks ago. Considering he cried to the AG (and we still can't really figure out why) approximately 3 months ago before even the FIRST BFL shipping delay was announced. That means bASIC is AHEAD of BFL on BitcoinINV's magical "I'm so upset and I don't know why!" timeline, yet he's only cried to mommy and daddy about BFL. |

WoW, sorry I ain't "that stupid" to buy a BFL ASIC in the first place, so I didn't know that payments went only thru bitpay.  So if BFL refunds everyone right now they will get almost 1/2 of their bitcoins. Pretty clever scam - lie till the price goes up, then return 1/2 the bitcoins.  Everyone knew that bitcoin price was going up. Damn they are smarter than I thought. I wish I had come up with the ASIC scheme And he still doesn't get it. This whole fucking forum is trolltarded. |

They bring it on themselves? There was just a full page of gibberish insults because they added an 'ignore' button on their forum. If they shipped tomorrow, there would be a dozen fucking threads here complaining that they shipped early.

We're supposed to listen to the judgement of someone that hasn't even mastered "copy and paste"?

I'll guess that they won't ship in January either.
You're just talking to yourself, aren't you? |

... Well, just to nitpick, the next delay from any company would be announced in 2 weeks. Otherwise, there will be hardware on the way.
Goodluck... I wouldn't get my hopes up. About what? It's one or the other. There's no "maybe" in there. |

Yep. It's amazing that Dell ever stopped using an FPGA as the CPU of their computers, since the performance is so close.

Gotcha. Because this guy ^ exists.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the bASIC bomb that got dropped earlier. Whatever happened must have been bad man. The only real scenario that I could imagine happened is Tom's engineering team was giving him a bullshit sandwich until sometime recently.
My impression is that he's outsourcing every single aspect of the design, and each to a different team. He was given estimates on each aspect, lined them up, and expected everything to just work when all the independently designed parts got put together. Everything was probably delivered exactly to spec, but since all these different firms couldn't communicate properly, they couldn't address all of the overlapping issues properly. |

Nope, no evidence whatsoever. No ASIC has ever been made for anything. Your alarm clock is a lie.
Will the LM8560 in my alarm clock help me hash SHA256? Answer: No, specifically because the LM8560 is an ASIC. I don't know what point you're trying to make? Question mark? My point was that this person above seems to not believe that ASIC devices exist at all. My point was that thousands of companies produce ASIC devices, and that he most likely has dozens of them currently within a 10 foot radius of himself. (blah blah blah bitcoin miner harder than alarm clock blah blah blah fuck off) |

My next question would be, if the bASIC ASICs are already finished and in stock. The question was asked several times but was never answered. Tom did never acknowledge that the ASIC is in stock. Maybe his opinion about the manufacturing state of the ASIC is wrong as well?
If this question is not answered fast, I take this as a signal to cancel my bASIC order.
They implied something with an ambiguous statement of "it's finished." When asked directly if that meant they had working chips in hand, the question is avoided. |
