I bought a couple of Singles during the Black Friday sale and they went "In Production" this morning and are now showing "Fulfilled" on my order page.  I haven't received a tracking number yet.  I hope this is for real and not some more shenanigans.

If true, this would make BFL the only current ASIC vendor instantly fulfilling new orders from stock.  Oh the irony!

ASICMiner does not sell to the general public and AFAIK they aren't currently shipping any product to resellers at the moment.  If items are in stock it's probably only because the reseller had old overstock.

 Ordered two more units from these guys. Already have one happily hashing away solid @ 180GH/s.
 
 Near triple the hash-rate, and ~half the price at present BTC/USD valuation compared to 2 x 50GH/s BFL Singles - Speaking to value.

They're being OC'd to ~200GH.  BFL is at $10,000 for something comparable.

Asicminer would be ~$5000 for the same.

No, this operation is "auctioning" off their units.. they are not in stock, they cannot be ordered via a genuine/proper web shopping cart.  

They also now have a couple group buys by the Antminer mouthpiece sushi.  

Overpriced (but between spending BTC between BFL and anyone else... I would go with anyone else)

Bitmain

The key phrase is "shipping from stock".  Aren't Bitmain just auctioning tiny batches that instantly sell out?  I'd love to get my hands on some but I always miss the auctions.

BFL may be way overpriced right now but I can turn around and resell these on eBay and make $1000 per unit in profit.  Whatever the market will bear is where the price will settle.  A month ago you couldn't give Singles away on eBay, lol.

Well,to me they're overpriced..............I don't have $4000+ to spend & I'll never order BFL again...........or Avalon for that matter.

The whole BFL/Avalon late delivery has put me way behind what I should have earned had I got my units,in either case,in a "timely" manner  Cry

I know...cry me a river  Roll Eyes

Sorry to go "off topic"  Sad

Fair enough.  Yes, the auction thing is a bit of a pain in the ass.

I agree that they're overpriced, but what are the alternatives?  I don't think you need to be sorry, you raise some valid points and I'd be super cautious if I got fucked around by everyone in town too.  I'm not a fan of the current landscape, but it is what it is.

The alternative for me is to wait  Cheesy

Late dec-jan looks promising...if producers do what they say they are going to do,when they say they are going to do it  Roll Eyes

I need to see REAL chips,REAL evidence from anyone anymore.My trust level is gone....Thanks BFL/Avalon  Grin

What I find funny is that I made a poll ~2 months ago asking "If I were to purchase a BFL product today whould I have it in hand in 2 months".  90% of people said Definitely NOT! 

I do not suffer fools gladly... "Captain!  We're surrounded!"
I embrace my inner Kool-Aid.

Well, that is refreshing to hear.

At least they are being truthful, for once.

Time will tell.

As long as it's not a Jalapeno, they're still showing out of stock.

Hmm, just checked again.  Jalapenos aren't even listed for sale now although they've added Little Singles.

I guess if you want to nitpick about who ships the miner to you.  I just got new (not overstock) asicminer gear last week, took 1 week from order to my door at a better price per GH than BFL.
