You did not buy chips yet, now that everyone else bought huge batches of avalon chips you will be like,.. the last person on earth to get hands on avalon chips?
Afaik, Avalon has not shipped the chips to anyone yet. They probably are waiting for enough orders to start production with TSMC. So, once they are done, everyone who ordered would get their chips in a reasonable amount of time.
Still you raise funds for this. This whole project is nice, but I feel sorry for you: you are too late.
Though the price/gh is good (a lot better than before), it will be too late by the time you get hands on them, i guess.
We do realize that it is late. But we figured better late than never.
Many people missed the early ASICs by Avalon because there were doubts whether it would materialize. Now that Avalon has proved that they can produce the needed ASICs, this is an opportunity to get into the mining game.Anyway, are the chips still for sale?
According to Avalon, these chips will be available until at least end of the year, 2013.
Now if you bought chips from someone else (like batch1) for some extra cost this project should be funded in no time. Acutally I would invest some btc.
No one has received them yet. Ordering from someone else would add unnecessary costs to the project without providing any real
benefit.
