Why should I not cancel my order now...

Because you may be able to sell your place in line.  ...
Yeah. Perhaps.

Regardless, their commitment was delivery in 4 to 6 weeks from confirmed order or your money back.

At 6 weeks + one day I start the refund process.

I trust their competition to get the performance ramped up on their new device more than I trust BFL to deliver their already fully functional device. Sad, really, since the BFL hardware and specs look nice.

However, honesty/integrity does count.

For an example of BFL honesty, go to this page: http://www.butterflylabs.com/drivers/
and download one of the 'currently available drivers' one through four. They are claiming capabilities they are not delivering.

Just got this from BFL:

Quote
Hi David,

Your order was 4/20 is just at 60 days, but I understand your ants. There has been a lot of product shipped so far this month, but when one person orders more than 50 units, the rest of you don't see the bulk of the shipment.

We are shipping April orders now. A new crop of boards arrives tomorrow.

Jody
(Emphasis mine)

Apparently there was one massive order that isn't on our books and wiped out our chances to get anything in a timely manner. I'd still *love* to know who's ordering $30,000+ worth of singles though.

Probably someone who didn't want to wait on the minirig.

I know, right, it's totally normal for it to take 3 months for something you order online to show up on your doorstep, right?

Of course. And also SOP to pay full cash in advance for something to be delivered <at some indeterminate time in the future>.

You might as well cancel now and get your money back early.  There is a 0.0% chance you will be getting one in less than 6 weeks.  Not a single unit of a single order has ever shipped in less than 6 weeks.  The delay was getting shorter back that looks to have stagnated now.  The most recent orders are going on 80 days.

Why should I not cancel my order now...

Because you may be able to sell your place in line.  Then again BFL definition of a "line" is pretty loose when orders placed 3 weeks after mine have shipped but mine hasn't.


Are you kidding me... Right!??!   Tongue

I hear what you're saying. However, for their transaction with me directly they are not in default until they fail to meet the committed delivery date.

I also agree with your assessment of the odds that they won't default.  Smiley

Cognitive's Seven Singles were confirmed today.

I also received three of my own which I ordered less than a week ago... (Used from forum members Wink)

I guess the BFL giant overslept a little, but now he woke up and sent me 8 tracking numbers for my order. And the chorus sings "Hallelujah" in unison Smiley hehe. Can't see anything yet on them since they are still new on the system, but I guess I should have my singles by week's end. I guess lots more will be getting shipped the next few days.

Thank God. Not many between you and me so maybe I'll finally get my one single soon.  Grin

*I sense a flood of confirmations coming*

I ask in order to save my sanity, when you receive confirmation please make one post with your original order date and then receipt date and update on receipt.  I mean a new post here at the end of the thread not the original post.

Example:

Ordered: 3/12/2012
Received:
