And I can't imagine what can be easier than paying in BTC. It's even much simpler than some of our competitors ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) The average person found icbit.se too complex for their understanding, they just want a bitpay form to deal with I think Exactly. I have no problems paying in BTC. In fact, I actually prefer it. However, signing up to an exchange and having to buy bonds (how many? 1 per order? Enough bonds to get to $2800?) makes no sense to purchase a physical product. It might work for ASICMiner, but there's a reason why BFL and Avalon use a 3rd party payment processing company. So anyways, back to my question. Is there a chance this could come back? I've said it before, the rackmount option is very attractive to some of us.

What they said ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I'd be interested in a couple of rigs ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Not gonna do a "preorder" ever again though...............but,maybe a BTC escrow type thing,hmmmmm I was gonna drop for another BFL unit,still might,but would like to see some competition.

Reclaimer project was cancelled due to a dilettante information policy. [...] FTFY ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Seriously, I was interested in this project when I would have seen any progress/updates on this. But the lack of activity in this thread and the failure to answer PMs for months made me believe that this project is either a non-starter or a scam. BTW, I agree with the others - the payment option was a disastrous choice too.

Well, one had to open an account at some unknown/tiny exchange (if necessary fund it via VouchX and exchange to BTC) and then buy some bonds. To me this is a different thing then just "accepting bitcoins".

To me this is a different thing then just "accepting bitcoins". Well, you have to open an account or register in ANY case. How else can we know who is making pre-order and find out one's contact details ? "accepting bitcoins" means at least creating a new bitcoin address and identifying the buyer, practically the same as it was done. It's just easier to use our existing trading platform than creating some new site.
