Finally received an answer from Bitmain, graciously avoiding my questions. Just saying that my Ant will be shipped today and tomorrow I can get a tracking no. on their site... So paid 2,65 BTC and it is still hashing on Bitmains account
Jeez
+1 !!
But atleast you got an answer... I mail-ed to info@ webmaster@ send a PM and a forum post (a few hours ago for the forum post but the where online for a couple of times)
Not to troll , but there moving more in line with the other miner company's as it comes to reply-ing and customer satisfaction.... And that is a bad thing ofcourse ;(
Yes, and I got a mail from Bitmain:
"we are prepareing 0.2 btc coupon for the customers who buy S1 at 2.65BTC, and the coupon will be to customers' account directly.
because there are so many orders waiting for processing, we can't reply you timely, and please trust bitmain, wait patiently.
thanks for your understanding."
What a joke, admitting that I and others have paid to much but not willing to refund the 0.45 BTC that would be fair, nooo a Coupon for 0.2 BTC!!
You gotta be kidding, Bitmain!!
So yes, yet another ASIC scam!!!
So - I should start bitching about paying 4.xx BTC back in November? Or how about the 3 BTC for xmas ones?
There has never been any price guarantee or protection with Bitmain..
I almost bought one @ the 2.65 price point.. but held off thinking another batch may come along slightly cheaper..
While it would be "nice" if you were given a coupon or perhaps some U1's to help the quick turnaround buyers remorse in this case.. but it is what it is..
Bitmain is NOT a scam in any sense simply because you disagree about a sudden price drop

Why do you think you should get the 2.2 rate if your package is going out today? The ones that were sold for 2.2BTC are scheduled to be shipped by the 25th, which is 9 days away.
I could see being upset that you don't get a 0.25BTC coupon to the 2.4BTC price, but saying it's a scam because it's not more than that is a little excessive.

I know it can be tricky to read OP's, so I'll quote: " Then, please don't forget that Bitmain pre-ships, which means lots of units will be shipped out on this Saturday "
So, my Ant is still not shipped and will arrive 1 day earlier than the ones shipping this Saturday costing 2.2 BTC, that is if I'm lucky and it arrives on Monday!
As for your, as for my "New Years" Ants, I have no complaints, they shipped and arrived long before a pricedrop of almost 20%!
But with this purchase I and others end up paying +0.45 BTC for having our Ants arrive at the same time as the 2.2 BTC batch
So please tell me why I'm not allowed to bitch about having to pay for "late shipping"!
