[CLOSED] Block Erupter USB Out of Stock - kosmo will be back!

[eleuthria]

Thank you kosmokramer for your vote of confidence.  I'm working hard to make sure BTC Guild keeps a solid reputation when it comes to handling ASIC delivery.  I just wish I had known that 800 units in stock would sell in under an hour.  Placing a new order for additional inventory now, while accepting additional orders through the BTC Guild store with adequate warning that any new orders are currently waiting for additional units to be delivered.

Congratulations eleuthria!

I think everyone is underestimating the demand for ASIC miners IN STOCK in US ready to ship with USPS priority.....

[dreamhouse]

Well this is a surprise - group buy #1 arrived today! I'll be up tonight getting them ready to ship out to you all tomorrow via USPS Priority!!

With any luck, you'll be hashing well before the fourth!

any updates on the group buy #2?

[kosmokramer]

any updates on the group buy #2?

It's been paid for and I've requested a tracking number, but no response from the catman. I assume it's shipped and I will update OP with tracking number when available.

Any chance you'll be performing a 3rd group buy?

I've received many many PMs asking the same thing, and I really would prefer to move away from group buys. It's quite uncomfortable for me to hold onto (or give away) customer funds without shipping them a product same day.

I really do recommend BTC Guild for now - hoping they can get more in-stock soon!

BTC Guild is definitely a good way to go, they're handling it like pros.  Ordered mine in the first wave, they are arriving and will be mining today (< 72 hours turnround time for US order while he had stock).  Great option for future purchases.

Any chance AM has provided a tracking number so we have a delivery estimate?  Totally selfish reasons for asking, planning some time off in the next ~2 weeks and want to plan it around new hardware showing up so I can get it online before heading out to the country for some tech-free vacationing.

I've requested a tracking number from friedcat a couple times but have not received one yet. I assume it's shipped and will update the thread with status when/if he makes it available to me.

BTCGuild is good, but for California residence it charges a sale tax, making it less attractive to me.

Anyway once you get more info on the estimate of the second group buy, please update.

WOW! I got mine already today you are awesome Mr Kramer.   Is this a good tip jar? 1KoSmoRSUFhkmFfnZBTzqP5kyJYK9Be6kj

I do have some sad news though. After 15 of these purchases I have my first DOA :-(

It just won't get accepted by Win 7. Doesn't even recognize it.  Tried many ports and 2 differet computers that work fine with the others.  All others are hashing away beautifully.

What is the procedure return for this?

Thank you.

That would work fine for tip jar. Sorry to hear about DOA - this is my first experience with DOA in a customer's hands (I used to test these to prevent such headaches). I'm happy to handle the warranty claim since I have some in-stock; I'll PM you deets.

Kosmo!

I got everything in the mail today.

Thanks a lot for the fast shipping and easy buy!!

Cheers,

Thanks!

lucky group 1 guys.... do we have info on the group 2 order?

Unfortunately, I don't have any updates beyond what I posted yesterday. friedcat has been paid for group buy #2, but has yet to provide me a tracking number or confirm whether or not the order has shipped. They're out of stock now, but I'd hope since we ordered last week we were well ahead of them running out of stock - hard to say without that tracking number.

As always, you'll find out as soon as I know something!

And yes, I'm quite surprised that pretty much everyone that was in group buy #1 received their packages overnight! Way to go, USPS!

If AM pulls another price cut in the time it takes them to deliver + people receive what is now backordered product, a pitchfork in my hand there shall be!

Seriously though, my usb hubs are getting lonely up in here.  Bummer. :/

With the new USB miners being released on July 10th, I can't see how the price of the old miners won't drop.

Also, I wonder how friedcat and the shareholders feel about their ASICminer USB Block Erupters being scammed out of the warehouses by the workers and sold on eBay..

Let's avoid jumping to conclusions until we hear something from the man himself. Here is the payment I sent last week - you can see, at present, friedcat has yet to retrieve those funds. I would hope that if that's because he's out-of-stock, he'll honor any new pricing for this order when he brings them into stock.

You will all know the second I hear from him.

Looks like other orders placed since friday have received tracking #'s  =  Not cool considering this order was paid for on Friday....... I really hope they can get some stock in quick. At this point Im waiting for my order from Kramer and an order from BtC guild. Starting to hear "two weeks" ringing in my head.....

[mackstuart]

Other orders from other group buy have indeed been fulfilled, but lets not jump to conclusions here.  Lets give Fried a couple days to resolve before PM ing him to death about this.
