Delaying the release a week affects your price that much?
7 days is a hashrate change of 1.072x under 1%/day assumption— which suggests that you should pay 0.9327x the price you were willing to pay before—,

It may not matter that much unless you're already right at the verge of a sure loss, but the trend with mining hardware lately has been to sell at near or across that boundary.
