Every ASIC box at BFL is out of stock.  They have yet to ship any ASIC to end users.

When BFL was taking preorders the price of a bitcoin was well under $10.  The price of mining hardware was based on that price.  Now it's 18 times that.  Must make it damn tempting to just mine yourself and not deliver.

At least they are being honest.
"out of stock", because there never were any in stock.

Can anybody confirm to me if they really have received $ 100 million worth of money in preorders?

They received I think $2 million in bitcoin at the time. So. Work that out. Thank god I never paid for my preorder. THANK THE LORD.

BFL didn't receive any bitcoin, at least not initially. They used bitinstant, and received cash. I assume they continued to use bitinstant, but don't know for sure.  

Edit: Sorry, meant bitpay, not bitinstant.

Shame on everything; regret nothing.

What seems to be the main factor of importance in this whole BFL debacle is whether they are still honoring refunds.  When they stop honoring refunds, then it's time to WHISPER scam...
