I want some hush money. I can be real hush.... REAL hush.   

I think the problem might be that I don't have anything juicy to say. 

[reactor]

thats too bad. your truthfull review of the company got taken away because they contacted you probably and scared you or offered more hush money

They threatened my business associate with legal action because we had our order shipped to his house + I asked him to check out GAW on LinkedIn (yeah, they basically don't exist there). 

GAW was reported to the Mass Attorney General's office (Department of Consumer Protection) for hiding and taking down information regarding power issues with the hardware they are shipping.  This was done by a Mass state resident.  That type of behavior is criminal and I hope the AGO followed through.

I've since asked a friend down south to peruse Hashtrader.com and see if he gets the same feeling I do.  GAW_CEO banned him (CrapEO, that'd be Chris, and he was briefed well ahead of time that you folks are criminals and to only ever use his business address for his order so you wouldn't have his actual personal info) this morning for being honest about the nonsense ZenCloud service.  He laughed his ass off when someone called Eric/Josh out for posting from the same account since Eric posted as Josh this morning, then the post disappeared from Josh's account and showed up under Eric's.  We saw that trick on bitcointalk before, hell, it's documented and searchable courtesy of the site that mirrors this site. 

These people are damn criminals, but honestly there is enough info online for people to decide for themselves not to support these crooks.  I liked that review too, was very honest, sadly any time someone posts honest feedback and isn't effectively jerking GAW off it magically gets removed.  I don't waste my time with them anymore, but since I am still on here from time to time I like to check up on the bs parade on this thread.

Im sorry to hear that you had a bad experience.
I would hate to hear that you are getting steadily discouraged having to look at your miners that you ordered from GAW everyday.

Feel free to PM me so i can forward you my mailing address I can take those miners off your hands.
No sense in having to deal with that bitter taste in your mouth, im here to help

Ah reactor, you're still alive, I feared the worst. E.g. maybe you were bribed with a War Machine and your house burned down

They threatened my business associate with legal action because we had our order shipped to his house

So that's why you stopped harassing them?
If you haven't been in conflict with the law you wouldn't have to worry about legal action.

We feel that these people are criminals, and at the point they're trying to threaten anyone with anything we draw the line.  Not as concerned with legal action, not concerned with legal action at all actually, but I don't put it past criminals to drive a few states to threaten a person in person.  Mind you, if that happened I could be at the GAW offices before they could get back to MA since I work out of Cambridge, but I put the safety of business associates over anything else.

I originally tried to help GAW, but at the launch of GenA they obviously lied about power numbers, obviously lied about shipping, and then worked to hide dangerous power conditions/PSU's melting/etc., that last bit could kill someone.

Apparently it seems that your stories have are based on some sort of grudge and deep hate. I bought from GAW before and this revelations you are spouting are little lackluster. I get the impression that all you want to really achieve here is discredit this company. No customer ever really disappointed would be so desperate to lie away GAW's reputation. You are telling us these stories and I can't imagine this is really truth.

Edit:
If you think not, you got a fucked up head on your shoulders.

Coming from someone with a fucked up trust rating.

I guess you like ppl to burn in homes?

At this time ima call you a nazi.

The 50$ Fury is back on Oneminer... but with 100$ international shipping?!
It's a shame

Perhaps it's more reasonable for someone in the United States: http://oneminer.com/products/1-3-mh-s-the-fury-by-gaw-miners-asic-scrypt-miner

Edit: Shipping cost is now lowered to 20$. That's quite better.

[spiceminer15]

seriously, don't buy this thing.

my BW does about $6 a day, this thing is 10% of that. so about 0.60 a day... it'll take 83 days to ROI at current difficultly IF the diff stays the same.

they might as well give them out for free, cause they are worthless

Shipping costs made it not worthwhile, but at 50$ this would have been a good deal.
It might do $6 a day, but if you're confident that a scrypt coin could be worth more in the future, and if you have cheap electricity, it doesn't seem unlikely to reach positive ROI. Even more so if the big 500Mh/s+ miners end up shipping late, which is quite likely.

Of course, in that case it's still more profitable to simply buy and hold the coins, but mining still is a fun hobby.

[spiceminer15]

no, a 13.5MH black widow does $6 a day. this thing does at most $0.60 a day. AT MOST. and that's current diff... this thing may never ROI at $50, maybe it will... it'll be at least 3 months at current diff.

its worthless

You're repeating yourself.

[spiceminer15]

should I say it again? this thing is worthless. $20 / free shipping sounds like a good deal

[suchmoon]

At 0.0006 BTC per MH/s on CM today, the Fury/Blizzard will make ~$0.49 with free electricity. Down to ~$0.37 per day if your electric rate is $0.10/kWh, or down to ~$0.25 if it's $0.20/kWh (power consumption ~1.2 kWh per day).

$178.85 in a year with free electric.
$135.05 in a year @ $0.10/kWh
$91.25 in a year @ $0.20/kWh

Think I got it right.

[jekv2]

In one year I should roughly make around $601.505 @ 4.43Mhs/s@0.0006.

Edit:

It's just hardcore if you can stay in the game.

only if the difficultly stays the same... which is obviously wont

don't buy it
