coupon was for people who paid 2.2 BTC for miners before the price drop to 1.9 BTC.
AFAIK this is the qualifying metric for coupons. I purchased units at 4.25, 3.15, 3, and 1.9. I have not received any coupons.

I've posted in BITMAIN and Sushi's threads about their pricing policies on coupons/discount codes. They haven't responded to either. No response to PMs either.
I think the coupons are given in cases where unexpected price changes occurred or other means of customer reward. IMO they dont have to give coupons, and I appreciate the times when they did

Ok and I purchased at 3, 2.65, and 1.9...only got a coupon for the 2.65 unit. Ok so that's cool...I just thought I heard someone say it was for returning customers...guess I was wrong.

Bitmain already said Jan 24th that the price would be adjusted after CNY.

Can anyone confirm that a PSU-1000W with 4 seperate 6pin PCI-E connectors suits for 2 Ant-S1 miners? Do they need the 4pin Molex for each miner? Thanks!

Check what DC power there is on the 12V line and if it is only one or more. Better post the exact PSU make and model. But most probably it will be more than enough. Without overclock the Ants use around 320W of power from the PSU. I got 2 of them connected to Corsair AX860i and both use 695-700W from the wall. With less efficient PSU (CX600M) = 370W from the wall. No molex required. Just 2x PCI-E per miner and Ethernet.

I think the coupons are given in cases where unexpected price changes occurred or other means of customer reward. IMO they dont have to give coupons, and I appreciate the times when they did IMO, they would have been better giving out no coupons at all than just handing them out to whoever they felt like. If they're going to give out coupons, doing so without announcing why is not good business. I wouldn't be posting here if they gave out no coupons. Quite honestly, I think it's foolish to believe that any price change in these units was unexpected. Bitmain and company (whoever they may be, which is another issue I have) seem to have their act together when it comes to a lot of things, and I highly doubt that scaling price is something that escaped them. The fact of the matter is that Bitmain gave out coupons one way, Sushi gave discount codes another way, some distributors didn't even offer them, and who is this guy from Korea? The inconsistency in price and price policy between distributors of the same product really bothers me. Feels like preferential treatment to certain distributors and customers, which isn't good business.

It's not unusual when chanting prices to give coupons to customers who purchased right before the change, effectively grandfathering them into the new price so they don't feel cheated that they didn't order a couple days later... removes a buying reservation "I could buy— but maybe tomorrow the price will be lower!" and getting it in coupon form keeps the sales going.
Nothing about it seemed surprising or inexplicable to me.

Quick question, is the Jan batch depleted? I have 2x AntMiner 180GH/s saved in my shopping cart awaiting payment. If I pay now, will I get bumped into the Feb.8 batch or do you guys still have some Jan batches that can be shipped out as soon as possible (before Feb. batch)?

I am in the same boat. Placed order on 25th 23:00 UK time (about 07:00 on 26th China time). They said orders paid for before 26th 14:00 (China time) would be OK. I think Bitmain said they have shipped all orders now but did not have time to update the tracking info before they closed for CNY. So I am hoping my order is with UPS and will arrive later this week. If not then we have to wait until they are back at work after the CNY ends. That's how I read it. Without tracking numbers it's hard to see what's happening.
