FWIW, I was just checking on the status of my Sept 10th order, and my supplier said that Innosilicon is actually raising the prices on the A9's for the next batch, and that it's supposed to be the last batch they're doing. It will be interesting to see if this is accurate or not - with the revenue they're generating right now, it seems crazy to raise the price, but also it might be to the point that they're just not worth it to manufacturer so it's on to the next algo.
This is true to an extent. Innosilicon has been having production issues with the demand of the A9, which is why newer batches are coming out with 45k Sol/s chips. Some have seen theirs in the ranges of 40-45k Sol/s. You can see the notice on the asicminervalue.com product page; currently there hasn't been an official announcement.
Older batches with assured 50k Sol/s chips are having their prices raised as their supply is scarce and the demand is still there. Future preorders for the A9 aren't guaranteed by the Innosilicon factory from what I've heard.
On an unrelated note, anybody find it ironic that the "official Bitmain Instagram" page is advertising this miner?
