Did you pay the OP?  Did you pay this guy $20k USD? 

Forget about it, you didn't read my post.  Thanks anyway.

PROJECT CANCELLED

1) Still have not received sample chips although it has been 6 weeks since my order
2) Have been unable to recruit a team of engineers
3) Have devoted insufficient time to the project
4) have decided that taking pre-order money to finance project would be a huge financial risk due to intolerably high likelihood of project failure presented by 1-3
5) post left up for posterity


Product offered for sale:
Modular mining device Made in the USA by Big Time Coin using chips bought from Avalon.

Contingencies: If Avalon fails to deliver the chips on time, the estimated dates cannot be met.  
If they fail to deliver the chips at all, the devices cannot be constructed.  Avalon has agreed to sell
the chips to Big Time Coin but has no other affiliation or association with this project.

Refunds:  Refunds are offered on a common sense basis where good cause is shown for the breach
of contract to buy.  Only the portion of the payment that was not forwarded on for chip purchase can be
refunded prior to receipt of chip shipment.  After chip shipment recieved and tested, BTC will
attempt to issue bitcoin refunds from the chip purchase portion of customer orders if possible.  
Non-chip-ordering payment portions will be converted into US Dollars and all non-chip-ordering
portion refunds will be processed using US Dollars.

Website currently under construction - launch will be announced in this thread www.bigtimecoin.com


Please point me to where is answer to my question.

Thanks! That was fast I'll admit.
Only few days passed since zefir received shipping confirmation.

Really really nice work!


Actually TGB was sloppy and confused about the difference between a "Master Air Way Bill" and a "House Air Way Bill". One is the identifier for the whole delivery of the shipping company, the other one for each individual recipient. Both are visible on the parcels and they are labeled with n/24. The conclusion is obvious, I guess.

My estimate was 187200 chips and guaranteed less than 374400 chips. Order #3 with 200000 chips maybe?

Thank you Smiley
To be honest I didn't go in details checking the number. Maybe good way to find out is to know weight of one package alone?
I go by this logic; If they made a mistake and wrote 135 boxes how possible is to make two mistakes and write 853 kg for weight of shipment?
So it is 6.31kg per package if there was 135 boxes or 35.54kg per package if there was 24 boxes.
I believe Zefir can confirm what is the truth by letting us know what was the weight of package or what is the weight of one chip.
I am aware not only chips adds to package weight of course, but we can conclude pretty accurate was there 135 or 24 boxes.

Edit:update from zefir by PM
Quote from: zefir
I'd say the first is true - definitively below 8kg. I put one of the smaller packages on our kitchen scales: 3368 chips are 2.15 kg, so 6.5 for 10k chips is quite accurate.

So it looks like impossible to have two mistakes in one tracking form from shipping/forwarding company and based on weight we can conclude there was 135 boxes after all.

is there any evidence that the chips were actually sold to a higher bidder? or are people just running rampant with speculation?

So far I saw no evidence for such a claim.
48  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Incoming Avalon News 8/9/2013 on: August 22, 2013, 01:55:09 PM
If Avalon is sending out 40K of chips daily (and Yifu said 40-50K daily), then they are capable of delivering 1 million of chips in 25 days.
That means all of the batches that are being late could be covered according to paul3 spredsheet

Combined spreadsheet with the avalon payment address (1FGAftzSTztFSB8LMwsrdCKTyqGY6zr3sU).

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AiLYkKIHJaIsdHpIaGdUOWRYVUdncTNpNlVKbVhCbEE&usp=sharing

Info about the data in the spreadsheet:

Order: There are some payments that don't have the hole payment amount in one transaction, these have the same Order "ID". For example order 4 -> Payment 1: 700.6, Payment 2: 55, Payment 1: 26.5.

In total there are 54 orders, containing 97 * 10.000 Chips.

One day our imaginary friend John Smith found out the way how to become rich fast and his eye saw shiny add from Butterfly Labs and their FPGA miners.
There he started his journey that might last as long as he lives

Here it started - FPGA ---> wait for a year ---->  
----> upgrade your order to BFL Gen1 ASIC 68nm ---->  
---->  wait for another year ---->
----> upgrade your order (add 10% fee for being impatient) to BFL Monarch 28nm ASIC ----> Here is our friend now
---->  wait for another year or so ---->
---->  Who knows what lies here (upgrade your order to Duke xx nm ASIC!??, fee or free!???)

One thing is sure and that is;BFL is company that will be your friend (for a fee) as long as you live and after (your kids and grand child can continue BFL upgrade path).
54  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: {BFL} Why The Monarch Might Just Work on: August 21, 2013, 10:36:50 AM
You know what else might just work ? Holding onto two live electrical wires whilst jumping into a vat of acid, hoping to acquire super-powers.

Or you could take a chance on this product.

Either choice is liable to cause you pain and suffering.

Tracking number received for my 4/1x/13 chip order - shipment info recieved only
well wtf is the x?
For some reason big time coin didn't want the exact date of his order to be posted.

4/1x/13
where x < 10

And to respond to "pics or it didn't happen":

Office and assembly is move in ready to get going May 1 and the first set of chips have been ordered.

AVALON & Yifu

Thanks for the work tiros. I made a spreadsheet out of your data in combination with the avalon payment address (1FGAftzSTztFSB8LMwsrdCKTyqGY6zr3sU).

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AiLYkKIHJaIsdHpIaGdUOWRYVUdncTNpNlVKbVhCbEE&usp=sharing

Info about the data in the spreadsheet:

Order: There are some payments that don't have the hole payment amount in one transaction, these have the same Order "ID". For example order 4 -> Payment 1: 700.6, Payment 2: 55, Payment 1: 26.5.

In total there are 54 orders, containing 97 * 10.000 Chips.

Group Buy Date didn't match payment date
1. There is no payment for SebastianJu Batch #2 on:
Code:
2013-05-18: Batch 2 ordered - Expected date of arrival (10 weeks) - 2013-07-27 ---> - 23 days

I added it to an order made on 2013-05-22. Anyway the bitcoins are still here 1ECoeDfK79CNm1Mzx6NMMkZrHVocwNg6Sp not transfered to the bitcoin address with 75k Bitcoins.

2. There are some group buys you have listed that don't show up on this bitcoin address. I added this group buys on the end of the table.

What do you think is this spreadsheet usefull? Are there any infos on other delivered batches?


Its correct, 4 of our batch payments went to the collecting address but one payment is still lying at the address i had to pay to at bitinstant, so its a bitinstant controlled address. I wonder why Yifu lets lying around so much bitcoins at a website since everybody knows how often it happens that a website goes scammy or dies or whatever. I dont feel very good when i know my bitcoins out at another website.

Only great master of Y(oda)ifu can answer that one, I guess.
