It's looking like we're going to be strung along for another month or two before we get any closure to this long con.
I suspect closure will come in the form of bankruptcy (we get nothing) or shipment of a unit that's goes straight into the dumpster.
Edit:
I hate junk mail.
Ill happily dispose of any units people don't want :-)

I am crossing my fingers that they will finally start processing our refunds ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) Same here, I got so many email conversations about the refund yet nothing so far. Just send back the $'s I'm done with this whole bitcoin game. Mining is only for people who are already rich. Thinking about going all PoS which is the future, peercoin, mintcoin, blackcoin.

Since we haven't heard otherwise, the full batch 1 shipment is due to arrive at minersource on Monday. Bobsag3 so seeing as I didn't get tracking info when will the next batch arrive to you.
I received a reply to this from Bobsag, and was told that units would be sent out Friday/Monday (more than likely Monday is my guess). It will be Monday most likely, and shipment will contain at least all of Batch 1. But, for some strange reason, I don't think this is the case. We'll see come Monday. Debitme: Get the refund request email ready to go!

Unfortunately bobsag3 I may have to spring for a refund as well. If I don't have a tracking number by the end of day Monday, a customer can only be so patient after a 5 month delay.

Does anyone know if minersource actually got a shipment. If not all of the refund threats are really useless.

When I spoke to them yesterday afternoon they hadn't even had a tracking number so I would say no.

The point is that they said on Wednesday that they are getting a shipment in on Monday that would include all of batch 1 x1s. They have been asked several times to confirm this or to revise as necessary. They have chosen not to respond. Seeing as it takes several days to ship, they would have recieved tracking info by Thursday or Friday at the latest. So, since they have not come out and said that they haven't received this tracking, then everything must be on schedule. Right? Otherwise it would be quite deceptive. I look forward to receiving my tracking info on Monday. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Just send back the $'s I'm done with this whole bitcoin game. Mining is only for people who are already rich. Thinking about going all PoS which is the future, peercoin, mintcoin, blackcoin. I think they're not planning on refunding anything. there is no justifiable reason why they haven't done so already, their utterly lame and obviously false excuses aside. it seems more likely to me that they will simply ship these now useless pieces of shit when they have them and refuse the refunds. I may be wrong although I highly doubt it. at this point the only way to get a refund is hiring an attorney I think. I've asked for the umpteenth time for an update on this and am giving it till Monday and will then hire an attorney in Shenzhen to get my money out of these people. sucks and is a waste of money, but there is no alternative at this point other than trusting them, which seems to me to be outright stupid. I've retained IPG Legal with good results in something unrelated. I believe they have offices in Hong Kong and Shinzen

What is the surprise they were talking of? More delays? SURPRISE!!! ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Paraphrasing from their last update, "we don't think you should wait any longer to know the surprise, but it is not the optimal time to reveal it...drr" Lol i totally laughed when i read that the first time, and again when you put it out there! It really makes them look like a bunch of fraudulent dick holes. Dangling that proverbial carrot. The biggest surprise would be that they are refunding everyone their money and sending them the miners as well. That would be the only thing that would legitimately surprise me at this point. I would be very distraught if i had ordered an x-3 or a few of them. Hoping for the best for everyone still involved! I still have two x-1's that i ordered from BA directly back in sept. That is why i keep dickin around here, if anyone was wondering. Ya think they would have sent me an email about my 15 days of free hosting, since they supposedly have the units in hand. Nope. Notta word. I fucking love it man; "Prospero X-1 (100Ghash/second)Options: Payment option: 100% in advance; Hosting: 15 days (FREE) $269.00" Yeah, my fucking s1s aren't even going to sell for 270, and they are almost twice the speed. I love how people defend these scum bags, like they feel some obligation to defend black arrow because if they don't then by proxy they were just as ignorant as ba for believing their lies. After all, it was a pre-order, we should have expected to be fucked by people with no scruples, because ya know, pre-order. That is so far from the truth. Everyone here was fucking taken. Highway robbery? This is beyond gross negligence and incompetence. I really hope these cock suckers get what they have coming to them. A month or two delay, fine. These is NO excuse for what took (is taking) place. NONE. Plenty of other companies got it right, Black arrow, you failed. Although that is only true under the assumption that they were trying to produce hardware and NOT run a scam. If they were trying to scam people, i guess it went rather well for them.

Many of the people here defending BA are doing so only because they think it will get them something. They're probably right too considering how BA is playing favorites with shipping priority. No one who has any integrity will defend BA at this point.

I bet BFL will deliver the Monarch before BA delivers a single X3.

Too bad the monarch is not a threat to anything else either. The 600G to 1T hash ship has sailed and is now so far from the dock not even the wake is visible. We are seeing the final product attempts from these companies; no one is going to crowd fund btc hardware ever again. It would take a real semiconductor manufacturer like Intel or Samsung to craft viable sub-20nm process wafers, and even with their billions devoted to die-shrink capabilities they've had trouble with fabrication. I bet BFL will deliver the Monarch before BA delivers a single X3.

I have dreams of BA give all the x1 buyers an x2 that can plug into the x1 for control. Making the x1 really 360 GH/s. That would almost be cool.

I thought you had received an X1 it was your only order ? or you still waiting for other orders for X1 or X3 from BAS MS ? I ask because I just wanted to know those who had received X1 received the entire order or just a prototype unit
