Avalon Batch #3 & More

[koob]

FYI tradeins just got priced at 17 BTC (which is fair ofc). Batch#3 should really get some discount or addition..

Hey Koob -

It looks like my refund request cold feet take back did get the ball rolling after all...

No donations necessary!
Y'all's appreciation is thanks enough.

17btc for 80GHash? It's really good price!

Whoa.  Makes me wonder what the soon-to-be-released upgrade modules will cost?  5-10BTC range?  Has anyone tried to revise their existing B3 order from 3 to 4 modules and gotten a response from Avalon?

I seem to recall seeing the official price from the Avalon Store in March when B3 being offered was 28 BTC/module.

Guys come on at the "partial refund me bitches". He will find a way to 'compensate' us, whether it be compatibility, first born child (split into shares) or something else. The best decision for his business would be a discount on future purchases.

But then again, he quite rightly wants to go back to hardware development so we can all stfu

Agree on the discount. But the fact that he is making batch 3 units compatible with future 55nm modules is pretty cool. I don't think it makes up for the delay, but if we could also get a discount on those going forward... That would be perfect.

Anyone know how you do an address change, as though a partial refund would be nice I need my address changed as I moved as I was sort of hoping that back end of March when I placed the order it would have shipped by start of July but as it hasn't I've moved and need to get it sent to new address.

cheers

batch #3 order

odd, all batch #3 order was done through bitpay,

can you fill the form out with the bitcoin transaction ID from blockchain instead?

BitSyncom,

I've filled it with my transaction ID and a link to my already open ticket on support.avalon-asics.com, I hope this is enough.

Best regards.

Just curious as to when refunds will begin to be processed?

Curious as well. Bumping this in the hope that we'll get some reply.

[jspielberg]

My guess is when they start processing shipments.
When they look up what model to ship for you, they will look up your account to see if there are any tickets for special consideration (delete PSU or please add PSU, etc).
At least... that is how I would do it

From their email :-

Next generation chip is in the works, 55nm will not be very different physically for backward compatibility.

But thats not talking about B3, I think its basically saying that the 55nm chips will not be too different from the current ones, so existing designs would probably work with new chip.

My reply to their newsletter.
Had to try.

Hi,

as much as I am looking forward to seeing process in the shipping department, I would like to voice a my opinion on your handling of the shipping delay in regards to pricing.

the batch 3 units were priced with a certain ROI expection in thought.
of course, that expection is not in any way feasible right now.
would it be too much to ask to backwards-re-adjust the price of the units?
it probably would not even have to represent the true expectional ROI.
most customers would probably accept a refund in the 20% or 25% range, given that batch 3 users only will have a week or two before the custom-built boards with avalon chips start to go live.

you're all engineers, you can do the math.

cheers

will we get the same amount of btc or same value of btc if we request for refund?
I recall the price at that moment if around $60+

About $75 is what the cost was at the time of batch 3 orders. Yufi already stated he would refund in full (BTC). At this point we are all curious as to when this will happen as I know my original refund request was submitted almost 25 days ago?

If you want a refund, you have to fill out the new form from the newsletter. I wouldn't count on your 25 day old ticket.
