Any idea when the hardware will ship ?

I am expecting have the full order by 3rd June 2013.

272 / 300 units ordered!

Reserve your place in the queue now!

All right,

I increased the cost of the VAT assuming the value of each unit will be declared for 5 USD. This raised the final price:

~ 2.10 BTC + parcel

Everyone now has an address on the second sheet of the Trader's book. Does this mean we may pay already?

Not yet! Let's close the book with 300 units ordered to me lock the price and generate the invoices (or payment orders).

I am preparing a mail list to request the payments as soon as possible.

269 / 300   almost there  Cool

...and more than 50 buyers.

I am going to feel like Santa Claus before Christmas!

So many packages to prepare...

What will this cost send to Slovenia(EU) fast and normal with and without compensation. And how many units are you currently have ordered?

There is no really a fast delivery option for Slovenia and the maximum compensation is £200. The delivery time is between 3 days (£51.12) to 5 days (£8.30).

One unit to be delivered up to 3 days cost ~2.73591137 BTC and one unit to be delivered up to 5 days cost ~2.19654343 BTC.

I will also work in accordance the UK laws

I can't belive only declare "faked" value is legal  Huh
think this will go wrong one day....

Whoa! Relax, fellow. No one is talking about "fake" value here. The UK Border Agency instructs the sender and the receiver to make a CORRECT declaration of the parcel content. How that is correct is another story... I am sure the boys in the borders have automated machines to screen the package, verify the declaration and charge the incurring fees. What the UK authorities wants is to ensure that I and the sender do not waste their time with INCORRECT declarations, which forces them to open the package and verify the content. All they want to know if there is a value to let them charge the right fees.

I'd like 5. What would total be to East Coast USA?

~11.50155331 BTC, up to 1 day to deliver with compensation £1000 compensation.

Batch Price   597.00000000
VAT 20%   0.49779857

 Huh
this time you started it Smiley
let me try to put it this way: for VAT btc overall price cannot be used since one could say its 100 dollar and for another one it is 50 cent per btc and both are right. Meaning there is no other choice than to calculate 20% of that declared customs value.

This is correct.

Is the offer still active? Have you ordered the batch? When do you expect to receive the devices?

Should I place a pre-order on sites.google.com if I want one?

Yes, please! Fill this form.

would you ship them to argentina? how much would it cost?

~ 2.24944733 BTC for one unit, delivery in 5 days with £50 compensation.

I've filled in the form for 4 Smiley

I will verify my electronic mail box now! Thank you.

To expose and bring awareness to the flaws in the Ripple payment system, I am giving away 1 BTC on Ripple.

This is a social experiment. Therefore, posts not consisting of an Ripple address to send 1 BTC to will be deleted.

How it works

1. Register for a bitcointalk.org forum account if you haven't
2. Complete the following steps in your light (not a full node) Ripple client:



So you can copy and paste the address we're sending your bitcoin from, it's rH3bZsvVUhzugvcYuJVoSYCEMHkfK6wHNv

3. Post your address here. I will send at least 1 BTC to your address.

That's it!

I suggest reading RippleScam.org afterwards. Please note that you must exchange your bitcoins with an liquidity provider (Ripple does this automatically, when paths are calculated) in order to withdraw them from a gateway.

This social experiment has ended - here was the goals:

1) teach people that Ripple BTCs are not real BTCs
2) teach people that your BTC.* can be substituted for anything you trust, automatically

There was also mass invasion of ripple.com/forum posters. It's not too hard to figure out who they are. Keep this in mind:

1) I have not profited at all from this.
2) Anyone who lost BTC.* had their BTCs exchanged by other people.
3) Anyone who I sent a BTC to could have redeemed someone else's Bitstamp or whatever IOU.

Please read http://ripplescam.org/ to learn more!

Dear Buyers,

Please verify if you are satisfied with the shipping price! Sometimes normal delivery is quite cheaper than fast delivery. If you wish to change the shipping method, just drop me a message.

German guy here. I want 3 5! Smiley (On the form I said 3, but I can't edit it.. So please change my order to a total of 5.)

Job done!

Thanks to ASICMiner recent announcement the demand for the Block Erupter USB is increasing fast!

Come on guys! place your orders now!

+1

So those are for people who ordered with a heatsink yeah, cos as far as I can see there havent been pre-orders for people who want heatsinks?  

Very interesting, I did not expected that would be like that. Personally I was expecting a crude design with the heat sink shielding both sides of the "sapphire" PCB. That is far from what I projected in my mind. I am quite happy that now the buyers can look at what exactly they are acquiring.

Hmm, because of another of your responses, it's quite obvious that this is in response of my exposure of a closed source payments system competing with Bitcoin. I encourage you to read through the information that already exists on the subject.

Nah... If it is something which is competing with Bitcoin is not the Ripple software, but that fresh new pump-and-dump currency, Elacoin. Right? I know you are involved with that... Is quite obvious from the evidence I have on you.

Quote
It's interesting that you use the terms unfinished, as the uproduct delivered was for bitcoind (which he can't run on shared hosting). We agreed to rework it with blockchain.info's API, and I agree that the development was rocky. Problems were caused with PHP incompatibilities, tormail being sent to spam, and I was happy and willing to work with him through the whole process.

MoneyPakTrader, on the day before he wanted a full refund, thanked me and asked if I need any more coins because of the extra work with his setup as well as implementing more features which I did for free (not part of his scope).


Let's refresh your memory:

I am offering to pay for legally binding arbitration. You choose any reputable service, I pay for it if it's within the general price range. I suggest judge.me. Since you apparently never heard of it, try Google.

You offered to pay for the arbitration, but later you refused to participate in the arbitration under the pretext that you did not received an invoice or payment instructions from judge.me. It is obvious at this point that you never had any intention to settle the dispute in a fair manner. All you did was throw excuse after excuse to avoid as much as possible to pay back the work you did not properly finished. Moreover, you did not even published the source code of your work to a third-party verify if you really delivered what you are claiming above.

Quote
I think that should give an unbiased third party the reasons behind his scam accusation - BTC rose, he wants to get now 10x more than what he paid in USD terms.

The only reason behind the scam accusation is you, the potential fraudster. On 2nd March you confirmed you were participating in the arbitration. So your pretext that 'BTC rose, he wants to get now 10x more than what he paid in USD terms' is literally bogus and typical from fraudsters which try to blame the victim for their actions. You had enough time to enter the arbitration and settle the dispute.

Quote
It's also funny, because you tried to bluff with dox, but you got it incorrectly. I do appreciate your passive aggressive PM.

I am not bluffing and you certainly do not know what I already have on you.

This is just the begin...

You will regret to have used your victim's money to become a VIP member once I finish.

Here you do not have your army of paid shills to protect you and disturb the conversation.

Hey A+C,

Can you get friedcat to confirm on this thread that he will accept your order even if it is less than the 300 units required.

Also, do you think you're charging enough to cover import tax?

Cheers Smiley

This is an excerpt from a message I got from Friedcat:

(...) Now it's OK and we will think of a proper way for smaller quantity and at the same time not making the shipping fee too much a portion (free shipping is always guaranteed as we promised).

(...)

Before close the deal I will review the fee to cover the potential customs clearance expenses. I will include this in the service agreement. I think I will assume the liability of any extra cost which could incur in the customs clearance.

+1

I wouldnt like to lose my bitcoins on a failed group buy.

Thanks!

Whoa! I think you are overreacting... Did I even ask you any funds? No, I did not. Different from other groups I will only request your payment once I am completely sure Friedcat have the product ready to ship. I am not playing the "investor" with your Bitcoins, right? I am very serious when dealing with people's wealth. I am working my best to ensure that every buyer will receive their pre-orders.

Woah, someone put down for a hundred.  That's a serious amount of cash.  Cool

True!

By the way, I am preparing a service agreement and I will send the invoices for payment before Friday. So get ready to send the funds as soon as possible. I am confident that even if the group do not fill an order of 300 units I will be able to close the deal with ASICMiner.

One more time, I am really sorry for the lack of continuous communication... I am still learning PR skills.

I noticed that one potential fraudster got the VIP status while responding serious accusation in the open forum. Traderfortress, a.k.a. Yan Kevin Wang, not just had the funds to acquire a VIP status but as well to pay for deceiving advertisement against the OpenCoin's software, Ripple.

However, Mr Wang refuse to honor his past agreements, such as return the money he got from a programming job which he did not finished.

We shall give a chance to Mr Wang explain what is really going on before to proceed for a precise investigation of his affairs.

So, Mr Wang, what is the deal? Are you going to honor your past agreements or do you prefer to have your profile exposed in the open forum?

We do not really tolerate fraudsters among us, Mr Wang. See what happened with Pirateat40, R+, PatrickHarnett, Cryptoxchange and Matthew N. Wright. They VIP and donator status were not enough for them avoid the consequences of their fraudulent actions.

Still a good few short, what's the time limit? Is there a Plan B?

Yes, I will try to bargain for an order with less than 300 devices. I presume that ASICMiner will not refuse to sell a product if there is a reasonable number of interested buyers.
