I think it's more fair to say that we do not know who "won".

I bought two upgrades for our Saturn. Maybe we'll get them -- maybe we won't. Lots can happen on the way to the bank.

Maybe the BTC will stay high maybe it won't. Maybe the people "stuck with" their BTC will be the winners.

We will know by the end of January -- If UPS doesn't lose them...

My feeling was that I would not get the units -- others would "beat me to the finish" -- well we got our order confirmed, they took our BTC.

Now we need delivery and successful mining. Maybe speculation would have been safer.

Give me this day my daily Bitcoin...

Total B.S.  You snooze, you loose..... I did.   Cry

I'm just waiting for the thread about the outrage, that the 15 people who got their first Nov order shipped early, got machines that don't run as fast as the revised Nov orders.

Title: "KNC Screws over early Nov order adopters"

body: Please join in filing a class action lawsuit against KNC. We were the first 15 people to get Nov orders, but our Nov orders were slower than the current Nov order. Everyone else got Jupiters that run at 600GH"

then it will be pointed out "Uh, Bro, you've been mining on it for an extra 3 weeks"

to which they will reply "That's not the point you KNC Shill, the point is we ordered NOVEMBER orders, NOVEMBER orders are running at 600GH, MY NOVEMBER order is only running at 545GH, I did *not* get what I paid for, you can't have 2 people order the exact same thing and deliver something different to each. Who want's to open a Class Action lawsuit, please send BTC for legal representation to address:....."

OMG!  I stayed up all night till just a few moments before 3am here(2pmSweden) and passed out for 5 mins...to find them sold out!

Hahahahahaha....I knew they would fly fast....  but  WOW

That sucks.

I didn't wake right away to my alarm for Avalon batch 1 at midnight my time.  I was like 50 minutes late, but was still able to order since their webstore fell over so badly at first.

If UPS doesn't lose them...

Haha yeah, I take comfort in the fact that by missing the buy window I avoided having to deal with UPS again.

I thought they'd fired UPS and moved to some other courier.

When I did after massive run-arounds manage to get my unit from UPS I told the clerk in the depot I hoped I'd never see her again, at least not at work. Hopefully I won't.

I'd be pissed off too, but really these sorts of things were bound to be mad-rush-batshit-crazy and you needed to have everything ready to go.

ASIC-K I feel your pain mate really, but it wouldn't have mattered if you hadn't got a 404, if you had got through to the bitpay page and got your code you didn't have your bitcoins ready to transfer for at least 10 minutes by your own admission, the bitpay code would have expired in that time.

I mean how long did you expect them to wait for someone to pay? If they had done it by holding the order as soon as you added it to your basket, loads of people(competitors,shills,speculators,on-thefencers,whatever) could have tied up the orders and then just not paid. Then there would be people pissed off about that. They couldn't really win.

But it sucks you didn't get yours, and Phoenix1969 man.. I can't believe you missed out. Too much hittin the pipe last night? Cheesy

I think they had more problems with DHL than with UPS especially international orders. Maybe they should offer DHL or UPS depending on preference.

Dude....   can you imagine how many miners were hitting that page at that moment?
That's like a DDOS attack wave of legit purchases....  This is the very first time, ever, in the history of the world, that this has happened to any miner manufacturer.... think about it....  We are treading in uncharted territory. There are bound to be weak points; and KNC can't be held responsible for Bitpay's server's ping status.
ALSO...  ERROR 404 could have been shown to you by Bitpay because KNC were already sold out, or over-pinged as well.
I wish I was able to buy a few....  oh well...  This is a very competitive venue.


edit...Biffa...  No, alone in a huge empty house tryin' to stay awake to 3am....ug.
maybe that would have helped... lol
I knew I should have set an alarm....won't happen again, I assure you!

Oh they won alright...  They sold 200+ units at $950/ea ( + probably a share of shipping that was 'too DAMN high' Wink ) in 3 minutes.  $200,000 revenue is a nice win for 3 minutes work. Wink

This UPS box


Could hold 4 upgrade modules and does not cost more than $75 USD to ship

so why is KNC charging $206 to ship two board etc?



Because:

A: They made a mistake and refunds will follow
B: They decided to make some extra money on top by overcharging for delivery.

Let's see which one it is Smiley

I like the think the best of everyone, but I am going to go with Answer B for $100 Alex!

Not to fan the flames, but may I ask why you didn't have your BTC at-the-ready?  I made darned sure to have mine.

He was desperate to buy some BTC the night before so I imagine he was waiting for it to go through or something.

ive cooled down a lot. just been waiting on these damn upgrades for over a month now... just sucks that this seems like the one upgrade chance and it went by within 10 minutes and now the november units have different boards....

ah well....

Not to fan the flames, but may I ask why you didn't have your BTC at-the-ready?

He was desperate to buy some BTC the night before so I imagine he was waiting for it to go through or something.

yeah man, well they announced the upgrade the night before and i didn't have any money in my cavirtex account so i was scrambling to find somewhere to buy 7 btc....so yeah mere finally sold to me and i could wait 10 mins for it to confirm since i already made the order and it was on my account, didn't know that it would disappear if other people paid first...

Oh they won alright...  They sold 200+ units at $950/ea ( + probably a share of shipping that was 'too DAMN high' Wink ) in 3 minutes.  $200,000 revenue is a nice win for 3 minutes work. Wink

Roll Eyes At least it wasn't a preorder so you should be happy.



Very happy - got my two boards Wink  Why are you rolling your eyes at me ?  Huh
