Black Arrow 28nm 100Ghash Bitcoin ASIC from $0.49/GH/s

[Bogart]

With the caveat that the 5 month delay is quite bad, and the sincere hope of at BARE MINIMUM 1:1 compensation...

At least there is finally clear evidence of mass production!

1:3.3 compensation would be more appropriate.

Difficulty on Feb 24th when our miners were supposed to ship: 3,129,573,175
Difficulty today: 13,462,580,115

(Probably more by the time they actually ship.)

[fivejonnyfive]

Well your buddies are refusing to give me a refund for the PSUs that they don't even possess and that were meant to solve a problem that they created. The compensation units are not real and will never ship. This is a scam. Minersource knowing or not participated in committing fraud.

They also offered to refund you the same amount of dollars you paid.

Also: They'll probably be late, and it will probably be far from enough compensation, but I bet the compensation units will actually ship.

Finally: Minersource in no way "created" any problem. They got the same promises from BA that we all did. And if they acted in good faith - and all evidence so far indicates that they did (I'm not extending that faith to BA, yet) then they were merely a victim of the fraud and not culpable as you suggest.

The fact that you are unwilling to take any semblance of culpability for the fact that you ordered a unit which says directly on the page "No free shipping for non-minersource orders" and are subsequently bitching about having to pay for shipping - you have personality problems my friend. No hate. But seriously?

Everybody else in this thread, including the employees of minersource, is frustrated with BA. Your problem is of YOUR OWN CREATION. It has been offered to be resolved for you for what I find to be fair terms and you reject them.

nobody even refused you a refund. they offered you a refund in equivalent USD but you want the BTC amount. If the exchange rate went the other way, you'd want the USD amount. Take what you can get. QED.

Funny how the wording in part's of your post is just like that of the last email I received from Dan over at minersource  .

Minersource committed fraud when they took people's money under false pretenses to perpetuate BA's scam. X3 units do not exist at present and I highly doubt anyone will receive compensation units for X3s or X1s. There will be more delays and problems with the PCBs. My bet is Blackarrow will be filing bankruptcy right after they ship a few X3s and before anyone receives a refund from them. Minersource is responsible for what they sell on their site. I don't want to hear any of this crap that it's BA fault. You decided to resell their non-existent equipment, no one forced you. I am in contact with Bitpay and the FTC. I will continue to pursue this to the fullest.

Do your thing bro. I honestly don't care I just think you're acting like a child.

"Funny" that my message sounds like minersource's? No. It's just logic. Apparently my decuction regarding the situation is accurate. I don't work for them I just buy from them and sure they pay a small bit for my signature but that obliges me not to do this. I've recieved a total of $30 from them and need a lot more to shill. I live in NYC not CO  FYI.

Also: I'm versed in the law, and the FTC and bitpay will likely laugh in your face.
Do your thing man I really don't care. Just trying to inject logic.

Plus even a bit more for the 3.3x power and we've got a deal

[mazedk]

I'm satisfied if I get 1TH/S cloud mining for a year from my 2x X1 order.. guess that's hoping a lot though.

Any news on the shippment bobsag3 .

Is it true that customers who live behind the european curtain are looking at running a miner that could end up costing them money? How much life can they suck out of a customer?

Me, as a fucking german inmate behind the european curtain say: Unfortunately YES. They miners are nothing worth anymore due to high power costs.

Don't forget you got to pay import tax which will at least be a few 100 euro's.

[primer10]

Can't help myself to check Black Arrow forum and here for more of their weekly bullshit.

This.

Opted to wait for fully functional units with all advertised features.
It'd rather resell fancy paperweights then unfinished ghettorigs.
I want the product i preordered, not some halffinished rushed cluster of untested hardware.
As for compensation, it has to be calculated based on the shipping date of the final miners.

[me2014]

how BA thinks to cover compensation when KNC ship their products when they cant cover it even with current diff...they are f***ing liers!!

Trusty ignore button for my trolling buddies Kingcolex and fivejonnyfive.

Attacking me personally does not change what I have to say. All I am asking for is minersource to return my BTC from their Blackarrow compensation PSU scam.

why are you being a fucking child who won't stop throwing a tantrum? Seriously do you want Minersource to not be able to accept bitcoins because you're a child?

Minersource has never scammed anyone.

[Pistachio]

They are selling PSUs for compensation units that are very unlikely to ever arrive. The X3s themselves do not currently exist. I believe the continued lies from BA and pushing back delivery of compensation units to an undisclosed date demonstrate this. You are welcome to disagree. I only posted information of how to contact Bitpay. I did not tell anyone to do so unless they believe they were scammed as well. If everyone agrees with you, then minersource has nothing to worry about.

Why don't you make a thread in the scammers section instead of polluting this thread?

X-3 doesn't exist? Since the backplane issue has been fixed I would consider it to exist.

looks like a 1ths machine mining to me
