This kind of angers me... BFL gives promoters the items out of line.
I have the absolute first SC Single order (#1656), and not even a shipping notification yet.
Orders start before 1600.
Months ago, a BFL employee confirmed that I was the first order. Humans make mistakes, sure, but I really wish you as a company would be a little more straight-forward, forthcoming, and transparent. No hard feelings, Josh. I know you do your best Any idea who sent you that info? I'm not sure why they would have said that... but it may have been during the transition from our old system to our new system. This is why it's hard to hire temp employees.
BFL have such a terrible reputation, mainly due to the fact they are rude to customers, and make up excuses. Funny isn't it, that comment fits the bill exactly! First Josh says "I'm not sure why they would have said that..." insinuating that Garr is lying. Then Josh decides to bumble over a few excuses. Classic BFL! If only they could get these simple things right, they wouldn’t have such a backlash. I don’t even know if they mean to do it.
Ohh wow. Check this out: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=89521.msg985559#msg985559Bit-Pay actually was the one who verified I was the first order. That's even more reliable than a temporary employee of BFL! This means that it is very probable that BFL is straight up lying, and shipping units to people who promise to promote their products.
Just to be clear: An honest mistake is perfectly acceptable in my mind; we're humans after all. Lying, however, is not acceptable IMO. (Credit for finding that goes to an anonymous "friend", you know who you are )

someone is obviously lying because if there is 500+50 new gigahash in the network why the difficult trend is to go down at the moment?

But now that it's impacting me on a more significant scale (and they're lying about it), I'm not keeping quiet. Also I don't appreciate you modifying my quote. Mine's a bit more... vocal This means that it is very probable that BFL is straight up lying, and shipping units to people who promise to promote their products.

How come on http://bfl.ptz.ro/ you entered your order as a Jalapeno not a Single? There are 6 singles on that page with earlier paid dates than the one you entered. People also pay with Paypal so Bitpay records are kind of meaningless.

ASICs were delivered to puppets that will post about it on the forums and/or write a news article about it, in front of paying customers that paid before the puppets.. We still end up with the same outcome...

I'm not going to be easily convinced that over 50 people placed orders via paypal exclusively in those ten seconds. BFL: What's your excuse for this one?

I don't believe Paypal was available the first few days. It was only Bitpay or wire transfer. I clearly remembered this because I'd wanted to use Paypal but was forced to do a wire and in the process my bank charged me $45. The Paypal option was added later.

Didn't see it on the front, back, left, right or top sides. Would you be so kind as to let us know what the FCC tag reads on the bottom of your miner? It should be located next to the UL and CE certificates.

The order was a Jalapeno initially. I paid to upgrade it to a 60gh/s SC Single, and BFL confirmed that I would not lose my place in line.
The bit-pay guys know the number BFL's database started at, and it was with my order. I placed it within ten seconds of BFL opening the forms, and nobody on the forums claimed a previous preorder until BFL started lying about it. I'm not going to be easily convinced that over 50 people placed orders via paypal exclusively in those ten seconds.

Calm the fck down, The reason why there are orders b4 you was the last FPGA orders were allowed to convert to ASICs. They've automatically become the first ones in line. For new orders, its true that you're the first.
