So if i purchased 2 units, i will receive a 10% coupon of 1,48 BTC? Thats 0.148 BTC --> 89,74 $

Not bad because i would like to buy another unit.

Just 1 coupon then? Hope they lower also price for next batch.

I thought i could OC both to have 1 TH/s or so, now i wont be able to get to 1 TH/s argggg

So if we are not lucky to OC S3 to 478GH/s how much can we OC it?

Is the 10% option a 10% coupon off a future order or is it 10% of your order total?

Coupon is better if you plan on buying another one

It is probably applied to the original purchase price to reward the people that want to buy another one.

Well, its ok, what do you think its better?

10% coupon or 7,7% refund?

Its 10% of what, what we paid?? (1.48 for 2 S3 in my case). Or its 10% coupon of what cost 1 S3??

Does that mean that some of them will actually be shipped today?

I am actually okay with this. However, I wish this news was accompanied with all of B1 being shipped on the 14th.

Would you mind clarifying what you mean by "Batch 1: The shipping will be finished in 14th and 17th"? Does it mean that you'll ship B1 in two different batches or that shipping will start today and end on the 17th?

Hello everyone,

When we were doing the first mass production, we found that not all of the S3’s DC/DC module could be stable enough to support the 478GH/s speed. After long time testing, all of the S3 run stably at 441GH/s, which however is 7.7% less than the 478GH/s we have announced.

So we decide the final specification of ANTMINER S3 here:

Hash Rate: 441 GH/s or more
Power Consumption: about 340 Watt at the wall when running at 441GH/s
Power Efficiency: 0.77 J/GH on wall
Power Supply: 12V DC
Size:  331 mm x 137 mm x 160 mm
Fans: Two 14038 fans mounted on both front and back ends.
Operating Temperature: 0 °C to 35 °C
Complied with: FCC / CE
Network Connection: Ethernet

Many of the customers may be lucky to find that their S3 can be overclocked to 478GH/s.

We apologize for this incident. We offer two options for customers:

1)   10.0% worth of coupon for the B1~B3 customers. This is the default option. (10% based on what you have paid for the B1~B3)
2)   7.7% worth of refund. We will release a function on our official website for application of this option. If you have bought from our resellers, please contact them and provide your Bitcoin address.

Shipping schedule updated:

Batch 1: The shipping will be finished in 14th and 17th.
Batch 2: It will be shipping out between 18th and 19th.
Batch 3: It will be shipping out between 19th and 22nd.

or they're hurrying right now (packing their stuff, and ready to have holiday)
  

lets pray

Yeah I can picture it in my mind.  Hopefully once the gear comes I can build it and it works.

Well lets just wait, keep calm 

Bitmain internal monologue: "Must... Resist... Commenting!!!"

Bitmain was online 15 or so minutes ago. Maybe they saw the natives are getting restless and will hurry up.

or not shipping at all...
 

nvm, lets pray!!! haha

Maybe it will ship tonite. . 

In Chinese it is opposite ..."do do-do"...

ZiG

waiting.... and waiting...

It's the fi.na.l count.dowwn...dodo.do.do..da.da.da.da.......

I wish I could start a bet and be the HOUSE on that bet...  (Pay out if not being shipped like BFL or Black Arrow) then I could make a lot of profit....   

I would say, just wait as the Batch 1 shipment was promissed to ship sometimes between July 10 and July 20th.  It is only July 13/14 (depends on where you are at now)  It is still within the promissed range.

I would say give Bitmain some faith for another week.  Instead of speculatirng and scaring others or being upset about what others speculate,  old asian saying even says, No News is a GOOD News!!

Well I'm a returning customer. I had previously bought a S1 from Bitmain. I was nervous about it coming from China but I was extremely satisfied with all aspects of the purchase. Shipping was free and fast, the packing was good, and my antminer has worked like a charm since.

I do have faith in Bitmain, it would just be nice to hear an update from them. I just worry that they are behind or that something went wrong.

Or you know, the 1 miner they've made
