In June 2012 the bitcoin price was roughly $6.50. And $30,000 for the mini rig equals about 4,615 BTC x $120 = $553,846.00
This simple math calc shows just how fucked preorder customers for BFL are. And to top it all of, the minirig will NOT be as it initially was advertised. It will likely be a mess of wires of much smaller devices or one GARGANTUAN rig lol.

Your post does not adhere to the code of conduct in this subforum. Wording is abrasive, uncivil, etc.

Did they really receive $100 million worth of bitcoins from preorders? It's almost like they are a dotcom bubble startup, wow.

AFAIK they have priced their products in USD, thus the current value of BTC is really irrelevant.

Wife: When is our minirig being shipped, dear? Husband: Umm! Not sure, but it looks like that custom shelf I made isn't going to work for the rigs that are replacing that one mini. Wife: And what did we pay for it? Husband: 4,615 BTC. Wife: And what was the approximate highest exchange rate to date? Husband: $250 per. Wife: I just happen to have a calculator handy and that equates to $1,153,750. Do you know what means? Husband: Yes, dear. No pussy tonight. Wife: Bingo! BTW, when the replacement units do arrive, when will be see an ROI? Husband: You know it's your fault that I'm a cocksucker, don't you? Wife: I ask the fuckin' questions in this household, shit-for-brains! Husband: Yes, dear.

Saying this implies that preorderers knew that bitcoin would be worth $244 only 7 months after buying the rig. Sure it would be a better idea in retrospect but nobody has perfect information. If everyone had perfect information all the time, then yes, no matter how you cut it, all BFL preorders would be a bad idea.
This BFL shit is becoming worse than the Rebublican-Democrat division. Everyone wants the same thing (MOAR GOVERNMENT!) with very slight differences and they hate each other for the slight differences.
Stop trying to make people regret using their currency as currency. Spending bitcoin is the only way to ensure its long term success.

They paid in USD, if they had thought the price was to dang low, they would have restocked on BTC. BTC is not a pyramid or a ponzi scheme - It's a C-U-R-R-E-N-C-Y remember?

I agree, BTC is a CURRENCY !
My neighbors bought a piece of land in the central city with INR 5000 40 years ago, had they waited for 40 years their 5k would now be equivalent to 500k ...
