Yeah He has sold me around 60 so far buys; 10 = 6 purchased 11 = 6 purchased 12 =10 purchased 13 =14 purchased 15 =12 purchased 16 =15 purchased My first 36 purchased were at .95 each. I think 63 sticks so far. Maybe 1 or 2 less. I can't remember exactly. If I got some kind of loyalty discount. I would buy 50 at .2-.3 each. I have around 15 coins to spend they come in this thur. from coinbase. |

People are confusing promo pricing with regular price. You saw "news" that price is .175... This is nothing but .10 promo to those who are eligible plus .075 shipping... Mr Arklan's post was the catalyst/source of the purported news of "overall" price reduction.. I believe the blogger used Arklan's post as his source of info and not friedcat/ASICMiner directly. Friedcat did not confirm .175 reseller price to me. This ".175 news" was misinterpreted/confusing further because so far you've seen that certain buyers at .99 were eligible for .10 promo... However, arklan was never a seller at .99... He ran the very first group buy at the 1.99 prices. So I have no idea if arklan knows this distinction 100%. If he does that could imply that perhaps he contacted friedcat and friedcat decided to extend promo to the very first group. However, I can not speak for arklan or friedcat on this SPECIFIC point. Arklan is free to clarify for all. As I never got a response from him on this question. Do not discount competitors doing hit jobs on ASICMiner because at recent prices they have pulled the rug from under certain ASIC chip manufacturers... If they could put doubt, confusion in your mind, thus making you wait on purchasing more ASICMiner's products, they think they would get a better window of time to get higher profit margin on their products. This is just a thought that has crossed my mind. I do not have concrete proof of this however. |

This is just a thought that has crossed my mind. I do not have concrete proof of this however. asicminer usb's are already only 2x the cost of BFL Jalapenos... with the price breaks averaging every month it won't be long until BFLs buyers are upside down in their preorders (with no product) because there's NO WAY they'll catch up with their backlog until sometimes in 2014. |

from someone in batch #16: "The kid's grandmother bought one of the Erupters, so it might be safe to say we are your oldest and youngest customers." this just warms my heart and makes me smile, bitcoin is multi-generational. |

All miners in batch #17 are spoken for to folks who sent funds after #16 inventory was gone. Even so, one didn't make #17. so they are now in #18.
I expect #17 to arrive in the next few days.
I expect #18 to arrive later this week, but it is not as large as #16 and I'm not going to fullfil large orders with #18.
nevertheless, large orders should send their funds in ASAP so that when friedcat is ready to ship, you will be in the first shipment out at that time.
batch #18 is limited to 1 per person (household), up to 14 units. why up to 14? because that's how many fit in a USPS small flat rate box. why one order per person? to give people a chance to get some of them while there is no more stock shipping at the moment from friedcat. it would not be fare for me to let a few large orders gobble up all of #18 inventory. I've received too many PMs pleading to get some if i happen to have some laying around... I don't have any "laying" around... Eligius pool has an inventory of about 150 available for sale, and your best shot to get some shipped this week is to join #18 and order up to 14 units. If I catch anyone trying to order multiple times using different aliases, I will expose and ban you from any future sales; you will also forefeit the .10 coupon. Therefore please be considerate. I do keep my word, so please don't test me. After I receive #18 and ship it and there's still inventory, I will re-evaluate this limit.
Please don't send more btc than is required for up to 14 units if you are joining batch #18. if you send funds for more than 14 units, you are going into backorder queue until friedcat begins shipping again. You can however, send enough btc for up to 14 units and the rest to go on backorder, send two separate transactions for this scenario.
P.S. The first batch that will be processed when friedcat ships will be #19.
P.P.S you can continue using the payment address of batch 16 to order from batch #18 and for backorders. listed below on this OP.

Manufacturer Update 7/30/2013: A new modification is being added, namely, indicators of CE and RoHs compliance are beginning to be added to the packaging. It is expected to start showing up in limited quantities soon in future batches, with all devices bearing these markings on packaging thereafter. There is no change to previously stated performance #s. More info will come out as released by friedcat.
here's what that looks like:  |

I ordered 20 units at .48 in #16. I was planning to get another 21 right after (#17). Would I be able to still buy at .48 even with the limit of 14 units? Edit: Never mind. It's on the way. However, it's a valid question, I think. So, would the quantity discount extend through the next batch and so on and so forth? |
