My package shows "packed" but not "shipped", where does that leave me? all but 7 have been shipped as of now. (i've not updated the spreadsheet or sent out the tracking yet, checked the forum first) those 7 are 6 to canada. i would have shipped them already, but i ran out of fiat. i'll be sending some more coin to bitstamp/bitinstant and on to my paypal (i know i know) to finish up in the next few hours. the remaining 1 is torusjkl - who i do not have a shipping address for. i emailed him about it a couple days ago and got no response.

wtf. How do you justify shipping some about a week (and counting) later than the others.

Have you been hashing with the replacement parts? If so, it would be good to ship a few day's worth of earnings to the Canadians to compensate them for the delay. I would go with four days but we can build a consensus from others that aren't affected by the decision (like me)...

justify? i don't. i fucked up. i've freely admitted that. at this exact moment, i have .34 btc and another .1 pending round completion at ozcoin. i'll happily compensate the canadians and anyone else who feels slighted - just be patient while it's mined up, ok?

Hell no I don't feel slighted at all.. you have gone above and beyond to be helpful and keep all of us informed.. it is this petty ass whiny mothers who can't do anything but bitch when someone wants to be a nice guy and offer his time, effort and obviously some of his own money/BTC to try to do the right thing that really gets my panties in a wad! WTF you made a small mistake with well over 500 items to keep track of almost 100 orders to get packed and mailed and people wanna bitch... hell I say hold his shit for another week.. your ankle hurts... your out of gas.... you forgot... jesus people GROW THE FUCK UP!

justify? i don't. i fucked up. i've freely admitted that. I can definitely see why some would ship out one day, and some the next, as there was two shipments. But this extra day here, extra day there, another weekend, it's getting a little disrespectful.

You would be quite accurate in this sentiment, except you are overlooking the fact that he was compensated to do this work.

You would be quite accurate in this sentiment, except you are overlooking the fact that he was compensated to do this work. Delays happen man. It's the way of business. He's offering to compensate for lost revenue. If he makes up that couple of days of mining with bitcoin, what exactly are you out?

But this extra day here, extra day there, another weekend, it's getting a little disrespectful. Disrespectful ... the man physically rolled his ankle and went to the hospital he was in so much pain. He dealt with the pain and had trouble with the post office, he made a mistake here and there.... over 100 damn individual orders... I think he did pretty damn good and if you can't offer him a little bit of compassion and accept the fact that he is only human and not perfect you shouldn't have been involved in such a large effort group buy being run by one individual (except for the collection of the BTC) because you might just be a little in-convinced in the time it takes to receive your product. Next time perhaps you should run it.... Arklan, sent ya a small donation for your time and effort... not much (0.25 BTC) because I am a bit short myself now too... Next day air this asshole's product for me will ya.

Sigh. Right, obviously this is a losing battle since the majority of people have their's shipped or are hashing away. I can't voice my displeasure without someone coming out of the woodwork who probably already has their order.
Asshole? Nice.

I think Arklan has done totally fine. I would never volunteer to run a buy like this because of how much work it is - I totally sympathize with him.
That said, there have been compounding small issues. Delays, incorrect shipping methods, etc.
I feel strongly that many of the complainers should have been MUCH nicer and more understanding about things but it isn't like they don't have real issues to complain about.
I'm just pointing out that there's a very reasonable solution to this particular problem - mine with the replacement parts and compensate people for the unexpected delays.

as someone who participated in a different group buy, but has been watching this thread since page 50 or so, this sounds like a reasonable solution. do you compensate everyone whose miner was mailed out after the 23rd, though? if not, where's the cutoff? there's an eyebrow-raising number of apologists in this thread. OP organized a $130,000 group buy and didn't even start printing shipping labels until the units arrived! i mean, wouldn't ya start prepping when the orders started climbing into the hundreds? i know everyone's happy to get their units, but let's not pretend this group buy has been something it hasn't
