Yesterday I sent an email to bitmain, saying more or less when they began to send the miner batch 9, if they met the timing,
but nothing to do, no answer,
perhaps I heard back from bitmain tomorrow Monday January 18

Just messing with you bud. I had plenty of loss on buying many BTC at $480 and also buying quite a few S7 at much higher price. Just the way this game works. But dollar cost averaging does help, I'm happy I got some at $890, I chose wire instead of BTC since I purchased my BTC at much higher prices. But I also prepaid some Batch 9 at higher prices so I'm no Wiz at market timing by any means, else I wouldn't lose my fortune in the casino we call stock market. =)
The only problem with choosing to wire it is that Monday is a holiday and banks are not open. In the Bitmain purchase PO is states it has to arrive in 3 days. So if you order today and wire on Tuesday morning I do not see it getting to them before the order expires. Not that it matters to me but just saying

WHO'S THE CRY BABY? ? ? ? ? I bought batch 1 for over 8btc! add shipping and 24% import tax!!! fucking pussies!!!
same here...but I was able to get a coupon so i was around 7.3BTC shipped and still have not gotten back half of that yet.
I'm not sure who got the best deal there was the time where BTC surged fastly and they were fixed USD pricing. Seems there were "bargains" then but I cant remember exact price just that it was cheap as far as BTC.
When btc hit around 350ish if any purchased btc around that and bought a B9. That might be also one of the better deals. So unexpected and unpredictable things are what create "deals" I think For most part they are able to keep price pretty even. But there was a few drops to I guess in there.
I believe that it was Xian01 who instead of buying a S7 bought BTC with fiat for the amount that the S7 cost when it first came out. I think he's probably pretty happy about his choice now but I could be wrong since the price had dropped a bit.
I think it was the other way around. He bought BTC at the yearly highs of around $475 on Coinbase instead of buying an S7. There is a photo of his transaction somewhere on this thread. So its shows how doing either can go either way.
Interesting that he lost fiat value. I would like to see that loss vs a batch 1 S7 once the S7 is done and possibly sold to a second owner.
I think a lot forget that miners these day's will be mined by people with decent to normal electricity. And for most part now they instead of sitting in corner unplugged will be sold to cheap/"free" electricity users. So can't forget about the sell at end when thinking about ROI.

That's how I calculate thing, in BTC. When it comes down to it, it has to mine the number of BTC back that I paid for it and not fiat since BTC to fiat as we all know changes. But I'm not in it to make a fortune. I just enjoy the hobby and if it pays back then it pays back. If not, at least I'm having fun.

guys I know its frustrating to order and then the price drops, but welcome to Bitmaintech I suppose. I recommend only ordering what ships RIGHT AWAY, everything else is pre-order and the price is bound to change for the best or the worse.
Yesterday was some decent deals as far as USD with a fixed BTC price. BTC value is going up though were around 390 again so hopepfully will go even higher.
Hard part about ordering now is a decent difference between something that is 4 day's away from start of other batch. And some have already got B9's. But it is true there will be winners and losers on who picked right most likely. I still see most going for B9 at this point.

that a difference at all between batch and batch 8 9 do not see it, it is only a matter of interest $$$$$
Now suppose that I buy batch 9, who tells me that I do not send batch8?
at the end there is no difference, are equal, they could take directly batch8 and make it unique batch 9, and start with shipments, so lie ahead for a future batch of 10, provided there.

The difference is batch 8 is in next 5 day's shipped should be a guarantee. So you know it's going to be soon. Some have been lucky and reported batch 9 already, but obviously not all got that lucky.
If you were the worst of lucky I think they have till Feb 5 till it's truly late. So could be some time if they used all of it.... if they do no one could say.
If they wait until Feb 5th I'll be seriously pissed. Technically the website does say that but we all know that batch 8 and 9 are the exact same machines so if they have them to ship now for batch 8 then they should have them to ship immediately for batch 9 on the 20th. I fully expect to see shipping notification by the 21st or the 22nd at the latest since I bought mine around the 5th so would expect to be close to the front end of the batch 9 shipping queue.
"soon" for lack of better term batch 8 will go away and they will be focused on batch 9. The thing we don't know is how many are sold and how fast they can produce them. Without knowing that it's hard to say when it would be. Feb 5th is a while aways so I hope they get them all done before then. But it is not a guarantee.
I don't think we really can even speculate just not enough known variables. The good thing is some say they have batch 9 already, so that is a possible good indicator.

Do they send you an email when they ship out your unit or does everybody just keep logging in to check their order status?
they send email. Also I find I get the email notice and updated on account a day or two after they have been shipped.
