There are many places you can buy ASICs: BFL, KNC, BitFury, ASICMiner, Avalon clones, and maybe a few others I'm not sure are scams or not.
There are 4 big factors: Price, Speed, Power Consumption, and Lead Time. Each manufacturer has their own pros and cons.
ASICMiner has the absolute lowest lead time, but their prices, speed, and power requirements are pretty crappy. BFL's Monarch is the opposite: it has great price, speed, and power efficiency, but the lead time is a bitch.
I know BitFury is now shipping, and customers are mining away with their devices. I don't think KNC has delivered anything to-date.
If I were choosing, I would go with BitFury, or if you feel like taking a risk, go with Monarchs.

For any undelivered orders in Batch 1, if CoinTerra changes the price of TerraMiner IV systems or GoldStrike1 ASICs before delivery, CoinTerra will re-price all orders and offer either a cash refund or a larger and more valuable hash power credit
Chances are slim, but if we do not deliver your confirmed December delivery within 30 days of our promise, we will credit your account 20% of the hash power.
I would probably order from them instead of BFL Monarch. In fact, I would never order from BFL.
