I just checked, and 35 of your last 40 posts have been in BFL threads. Can you stop? Anyone who cares will be at the BFL forums, and will get all the information they need.

$200 for intl express shipping on a Single?  Surely an SC Single weighs < 1Kg.

And that's each.  Looks like they don't give any combined shipping discounts.

Jeez.

Surely the true cost is closer to $70.  No?

Avalon updates only once or twice a month.

There is almost zero activity going on in Avalon threads. What do you want me to post to make the averages seem better?

By your token reasoning, I should ask the Moderators to delete BFL threads as they already have an offsite forum.

LOL still $200 for shipping wft are they made of lead.  Still unreal price.  $400 is why I don't have an order $200 doesn't change that fact much.  I'll give ya $75 tops.

@PuertoLibre:

Just a question; are you even invested in BFL ASIC hardware?

So why can't you only post once or twice a month? If you're looking for stuff to post on cuz you're bored, there are plenty of other sub-forums to browse.

The lack of Avalon updates has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that the VAST majority of your posts are in BFL threads.

You might have missed the part where I mentioned I come here to check when I will get my hardware.

The other forum sections (while vast) are outside of my interest.

The lack of Avalon updates
Thank you for the validation. I will be "bumping" Avalon threads mercilessly just to throw off your count. (Pun intended on the "BUMPing")

[...] has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that the VAST majority of your posts are in BFL threads.
They are the competition.

Like I said, you didn't complain when former BFL trolls mercilessly pestered the bASIC threads. Now that it is the company where you are invested in, you have "issues".

By the way, there is trouble in paradise:

By your logic I should bombard every Avalon thread with seemingly useful information

(i.e. Its March 5th, Avalon still hasn't shipped out most of Batch 1,
How dare they take orders for Batch 2,
they don't answer most customer service concerns in a timely manner,
they screwed up order taking for batch 2,
they don't give refunds)

Since it is ok for you to do, I guess it should be ok for me to expose this information about Avalon in a new thread every time I read something right?

Go right ahead.

I encourage people to do this if they want to.

It will at least be more entertaining than reading BFL crap.

I hate nothing more than doing customer service and responding to emails. I actually would like to hear the latest controversy on Avalon while I am not looking at some annoying email. If you can find it in you to post (real crap) about what Avalon is or is not doing, by all means, shoot for the moon.

Do you believe you are doing us all a favor?  Like some sort of public service? Or am I misunderstanding the bolded part above?

No, it is what I do when I am on the computer and am avoiding (email related) work.

tl;dr: Apparently, international shipping costs from BFL have been reduced, and some of the earlier customers have asked BFL if they too will get lower shipping costs. BFL hasn't answered yet.

The problems with this thread is
- That the topic has dropped the question mark. Right now it's misleading by making it look like BFL has already answered the question.
- That the first post is just a link.
- The rest of the thread is just meta-discussion about users having a right - or not - to be interested in how ASIC companies does their business.

Unfortunately PuertoLibre has made it more than that.  In the context of many, many other threads he has invited people to question his motive and intent.  I invite you to review his posts and you'll see that he's not in any way trying to contribute meaningfully or constructively to the community.  My opinion, though I can quite reliably predict how he's about to react after quietly watching his handiwork for several months.
