+ good question s
However, the price is astronomical !! 

[NullVoxPopuli]

These seem way overpriced. Especially since Blackarrow is offering 1.50 USD/GH/s (granted, for March)

For March you say...same bs as Cointerra for December, Hashfast for October, BFL as always, Avalon for April...
BI*Fury's are shipped within 24h, thus the price is higher.

The price is 85 dollars a GH/s.
I bought an Avalon a month ago for 1200 USD. which is 20 USD per GH/s.

Cloud hashing on *CEX.IO* is even cheaper.

current BTC price: 706 USD. $706 * 0.069[BTC/GHS] =~ 48.7 USD/GHS

How is ROI calculation going to prove anything but exactly what I'm saying?

[capitalaccent]

Just, to make sure that you were right...

Sorry that I have to mention it again, but since those miners cost several hundred Euro they should not be shipped like this:


Antistatic bags do not even cost 0,1 Euro and can save a lot of trouble.
Also I am still waiting for my invoice (again) for two weeks now.

Really I cant see what your real problem is. We send thousands devices all round world and only you sir got some problems with our packing(this a fact).
Like I assumed you are located in Germany so package transit is shortest in our logistics link right now.

So important question: are even one from your device don't work? That you write about wrong packing? Are we deliver not working device to you?


We packing all our devices in anti-static bubble foil.
In bulk orders we always packing units in 5 pieces bars.

All unit are also warp in carton shield (bulk orders also with foam shield).
All our package got "fragile" sticker so UPS know to take good care of our package.


All invoice are on request and Yes they going out with delay but they are always with right sale date and we send it always in right month for accounting, so what problem you have with invoice?

[Felipeo]

Super fast delivery.

Order went through on the 11th. They arrived on the 16th. Poland to the west coast USA in 5 days... Amazing.

Thank You
Nice to read that you like our service! We giving our best for customers!

Hi Felipeo,

I must say I am disapointed in your service. My BiFury is broken. Cscape confirmed that a week ago. I sent you several e-mails (this forum, to the webshop and the paypal address), but no response at all how this device is going to be replace.

Can you please confirm that you have receive any of these messages and how you are going to replace the unit or give me a refund?

Kind regards,
Marc

I'm very sorry for information delay(we have very hard time before Christmas).
I also get information that you already start our exchange procedure. Thank you for cooperation. We will make it happened ASAP.

If anyone is looking for a good fan recommendation, the arctic breeze usb fan is keeping mine at a nice 42.3º C, 5.184Gh/s. Also I'm new to this, so perhaps you already all knew that and I'm late to the game.

We also recommend this fan model

Thank you guys for help wit this MAC issue You will be rewarded

Maybe not "bifury in mailbox" but you should be expecting something

[Felipeo]

OMG SUCCESS ON MAC! 4.8 Gh/s! I'm so excited  

Ok, here's what you need to do. CScape it wouldn't hurt if you throw jedimstr and me some thanks (cough another bifury cough) for debugging this for you and your mac users. 

To update firmware on Mac:
1. short the jumpers on your bi•fury and plug it in
2. Close all finder windows (just to be safe)
3. Open terminal, cd /Volumes/CRP\ DISABLD/
4. rm firmware.bin
5. curl -R -O --ssl http://c-scape.nl/bi-fury/firmware.bin (this downloads the firmware and leaves the modified date intact)
6. type diskutil list and note which disk# is used by CRP DISABLD, let's call this N (as in "diskN")
7. diskutil unmountDisk /dev/diskN where N is that # you just recorded
8. unplug and plug back in. The light will turn on then off again

To get it running in cgminer now:
1. sudo cgminer -o yourpool -u username -p pass — that's all, and thanks jedimstr for the sudo tip!

To thank 303 and jedimstr for helping you
303: BTC 1H9ygsQ19qfW6iEqc8irEPhzzd7tAMWzQn
jedimstr: BTC 1Gh4jRoqQNodvwWd74Y3VbpNamYmvdhwTn

Here's why downloading firmware on a mac and dragging it to the drive doesn't work:

Mac OS X / Chrome download does two things that mess with the file:
1. Mac OS X adds extended attributes (xattr list firmware.bin) to the file, one of which is a quarantine check.
2. Mac OS X modifies the date of the file (I'm not sure if this messes with it, but everything seems to go smoothly when I adjust for this with -R in curl)

What was happening was that the device didn't like this file and would overwrite it with its default firmware.bin, throwing us in a loop.

I also add this instruction to our support site Thank You again!

Hi Felipeo,

I have created account at Crypto Store, and I ordered and paid (with Bitpay) for 10 Bi-Fury USB miners.
Order #92x 21-Dec-2013

The order status is now 'processing'.
When do you think this order would be shipped?  Could it be Monday?

I'm just wondering if I would receive it before the new year.

Thank you
merv77

EDIT. 
Amazing... I already received tracking number.  scheduled delivery 31-Dec-13
I will definitely buy more after I receive these.

Thanks again Felipeo for super fast service.

Cheers

Interesting device,do you have many instock now?

lets say you have 10 of these in 1 usb hub with 10 slots, how much power draw would the psu use?

Interesting video

They suck huge amounts of power i run 4 on a usb3 hub (going to usb 2 port) + fan with iirc a 48W adapter. i can plug more in but sometimes the hashrate gets screwy yet when tested individually all sticks are fine. They mail them UPS so you get in ~3 days.

Anddos sorry for no answer I just mist your question.

Thanks for answer wunch.

Yes, They suck that much power like you give them up to ~0.85 W/GH.

ORICO hub form our video and shop runs 3-5 pieces easy, but when we try more there was some hashrate loss due power draw.
It also depend on mobo bus, on desktop PC you will connect more device without problems. On laptop less.
Always number of devices connected to one system will depend on host hardware.

First of all, our main product is on a Christmas sale! - Yes, the price has dropped significantly.

According to Sushi and a few others around here, BitCoinTalk members are only 1/3 as moronic as Ebay buyers.  While Ebay morons would be happy to pay $322 for 5GH/s, the moron here only want to pay 1/3 that price.  Honestly even $120 each would be my limit at this difficulty and BTC price.  $64 per GH is still way too high.

If I buy 10 BiFury devices at $2999, I'll have ~50GH/s.
If I buy 10 ASICMiner Blades at $2499, I'll have ~100GH/s.
If I buy 6 ASICMiner Cubes at $2808, I'll have ~180GH/s.

$200 -$500 cheaper and two to three times the speed.  I just don't see any advantage in buying these compared to other devices currently available.  Am I missing something?

No you don't! But the question is: do you know a place where we can BUY NOW 10 ASICMiner Blades at $2499 or 6 ASICMiner Cubes at $2808 ?
Thanks!

Yes you do!
Because it is Christmas time you are missing the golden chance not to loose 100% of your investment but only 90%.
