So "waldohoover" (https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/waldohoover-101143) of coiningsolutions.com is refusing to give out the 7.7% refund on my order of 4 S3's, but lucky me I can have coupons, as long as I buy more from coiningsolutions.com of course. Roll Eyes

Here's what I got back in PM when I asked for a refund as per Bitmain's instructions....a warning to anyone thinking of purchasing through coiningsolotions.com! Angry

Hi WH,

Just checking you got my PM? Let me know if you need me to do anything else to process the 7.7% refund.

Thanks!

Kebabman

Hi Kebabman,

We have decided our batch order is going to be in the form of Coupons and not a refund. You are entitled to redeem your coupon if you decide to purchase future miners through us.

Thank you,
WH

Hi WH,

But bitmain said we could choose a coupon or a refund? Undecided

Thanks,

Kebabman

Hey Kebabman,

Correct, but I am not Bitmain. I'm working as an independent reseller and since I cannot choose per order and only on batch orders, coupons make more sense on paper. Sorry for the inconvenience, to avoid any mixups in the future you can always order directly through Bitmain.

WH

I understand why you might be frustrated but I think they actually have a point. They do bulk orders and Bitmain doesn't allow you to pick one coupon, rest in BTC.

Next time order from BFL. Or maybe Hashfast, or Cointerra, or AMT, Or AMC/VMC.

Enough of these suckers...but BitMain is NOT a SAINT either...S2 and S3 screw-ups already...

I went for the refund on 6 S3 units, better to have money in hand. These may be my last batch of miners until we all start to see some real increases in hashing power delivered by the manufactures. What will we see next from Bitmain?

S1 and S2 upgrade kits? Soon???

S4 = 2 TH

S5 = 4 TH

S6 = 8 TH

One can only hope! Cool

forgive me if this has been answered. Didnt see it.

Does the coupon apply at one coupon can be used for one future order?

I ask cause I ordered 20 s3-b1

so if i get 20 coupons, i have to buy 20 more units to use them?

Same question here for me also!

I have ordered 6xS3's and would like to know does the new coupons apply to 6 more orders or apply to any new S3 orders?

Did I read that right?

Why would you think that BitMain would let you jump the line and add new units to your old order?

Because I ordered early based on a preliminary spec, and want the most for my BTC, I'm happy to pay a little extra to occupy the PSUs I (and a few of us I assume) purchased based on the initial spec. It is an easy way for Bitmain to make us all feel taken care of.... It's up to them if they want to do it.

Still a fan based on S1 experience, however if I had ordered the S2s this would be upsetting....

Just throwing out the desire of a single miner amongst the group....

I chose the coupon.

With the difference in the power requirements and hashrate I'd rather have the option to increase my order (I'm in batch 1) to fill the requirements of the PSUs I have standing by for delivery....

Bitmain: would you quickly offer a solution for those in each batch to add more units to an existing order (delivered at or near the same time) that meets the power specs for the initial order?

I ordered a total of 4 S3's and would like to add 2 more to my existing order (to be shipped at the same time or closely after) at a discount equal to the reduced hash rate.

Having 1,300 watt PSUs I could add 3 to each rather then 2, so I'd like another 2 units at a discount, delivered with the units from the batch I ordered in...

Thanks.

P.S. Hope they work with p2pool!

Kia ora!

It really comes down to this. Are you going to buy another Antminer s3 within the coupon period, if not then take the refund.

to those that applied for a refund on batch one please let us know when you get one.

Also It is late I had a few beers and I am tired . I think I will crash and decide what to do on tue around 9 am. eastern standard time

Good call - I bought my S3s after a few. Lowered my inhibitions and my mathematical abilities.

I bet you guys get to wait a long time to see those refunds.. I would take the 10% coupon considering I will be buying, running, and selling these S3's for a loooong time.......

you only get it in BTC - the app asks for your BTC wallet address for the refund.

Swimmer makes sense, Refund applied for. I am sure I will buy more S3's but process is too "final" and loosely explained.

I took the refund. A bird in hand better than 2 in the bush. I can decide at a later point to buy more S3s or not without the "pressure" to use my coupon. And I can barter for coupons on here probably. It's not worth waiting/gambling on that extra 2.3% of value.
