Has any reseller received any Blades from the "Agust 11th" advertised re-stocking date?
I would like to buy one of those Blades, but I would like to buy from a reseller who has them in stock already, no preorders.
Regards.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=277332.0 Have you heard back from friedcat recently ? Have you received new stock between August 11th and today ? Yes, I have stock. How much are they and price for express delivery to united kingdom? you want to contact yxt for EU, he is the reseller there How about express in the US? |

Seems like it's safe to say there has not yet been a restock of additional USB purchases for prior eligible customers at 0.1 BTC ?  |

just to quote what you said:
"(ASICMINER) have created thousands and thousands of pissed off customers that thought they were going to "print money" but got taken to the cleaners"
AM didn't tell them they were going to "print money", the customers didn't do their due diligence. Not AM's fault.
Presumably all these thousands and thousands of "pissed off" customers won't come back, and that will be the end of AM's hardware sales. Or perhaps they will sell out in days again?
I'm just struggling to understand why you are having a go at AM? They made no false promises with their products, did not guarantee or even suggest any returns, simply put a product out there that people couldn't get enough of. Nobody forced anyone to buy them. People want mining equipment now, not vaporware that may appear or may not appear.
If people can't use a ROI investment calculator then they shouldn't be in this business. Again, their responsibility, not AM's.
Ah yes, the old there's a sucker born every minute line. Fuck them, I'm out for me. Who cares that ASICMiner sold the first USBs at 2BTC apiece, quickly making $1,000,000 from less hashing speed than a $30,000 1.5TH minirig? And that was from only 4,000 units. The customers were too dumb to know they were being fleeced, it's their fault for being stupid, not ours for deceiving and fleecing them! It a sad day when greed makes people into assholes. |

A great many customers bought them as souvenirs and gifts. After all, it's a shiny usb stick with a Bitcoin logo which actually mines Bitcoin!
Furthermore, there is NOTHING wrong with selling hardware at market price - the market sets the price. If the market didn't like the price, the USBs would never have been bought.

People have been having ASIC thrown at them for months... preorders claiming $5000 a month from the purchase of an April preorder of a Jalapeno... PRESTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Overpriced little USB sticks being sold by snake oil salesmen who know they are ripping people off and don't care and starting prices double what they paid for them cause ASIC is the buzz word and PROFIT IS FUCKING GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!... they're too stupid to realize they're being fucked up the ass so hard they're bleeding for weeks... it's all their fault for not being aware. Gotcha, you like being a prick. |

So you are saying fridcat should sell hardware at below market price?
Business does not work that way, bro. Mining calculators are freely available, and if you buy shit without doing research then you are shooting yourself in the foot, no one else.
Remember the dotcom bubble? Yeah, this is what's happening now, too.

I have to say, the rate at which you are dropping prices for Erupters is directly undercutting (read robbing) margin from resellers. Resellers made this company. Without resellers you would have NO DISTRIBUTION NETWORK. This is a slap in the face to the people who helped you reach the place you are in now. As a reseller who paid and had his margins completely erased before they even arrived, I can tell you with full confidence you wont be seeing any more BTC from me.

Is this what I said or is this your refractory interpretation? The rate at which prices are dropping burns resellers. Watch your sales evaporate if you cant maintain a stable price for even a few weeks. |

Watch your sales evaporate if you cant maintain a stable price for even a few weeks. thats the case with all of bitcoin. would you invest in a 7970 for bitcoin mining now? NO. (if yes, then reconsider!) ASICs are escalating massively, and unless you can adapt at the same speed you should not expect to ever break even |
