While we are waiting for avalons to come in the mail, lets think of the worse thing possible that could happen. What if yifu and all of avalon just disapear now that they have all the money from batch 2 and 3 orders as well as selling bulk asic chips. That is a couple million $$ and no one could do anything about it.

We are ramping up and the shipping of batch two has indeed begun, albeit not up to speed, we expect this situation to improve in a week or so once the equipment finish installing and the new, additional crew get use to the process.

That was the April 15th newsletter. I haven't heard anything about May the 15th, is that something new?

Regards,
Brian

Wow, they really take a vacation even when they said they will be shipping 15th of may? All they say is they are working hard, but the Avalon Customers arent seeing that at all. Batch 1 got delivered - nice. Now you tell me Asic Chips are going to be delivered before I receive batch 3? I mean, they got a delivery time of 8-10 weeks. I doubt I will see my avalon in my room mining within that time.

and meanwhile asicminer's erupter blades are paying for themselves

At 75BTC each that's not happening unless you have free power and you can run them for years.
Not even in that case.
Meanwhile, the difficulty is skyrocketing and no one has the balls to blame that to Avalon and their holidays.

What bothered me was Batch 1 "shipped" on January 20th.... fill in the rest. Without CNY, realistically we will start seeing batch 2s at the end of May. Timeline: April 30th, SMT line finished. 1st week of May: Build 300 units. 2nd week: last 300 units. 3rd week: Ship all units, takes 1 week to reach customers.
It means we have to wait for another month?
Delay and delay again!

Waiting for Avalon Batch #2 is like riding in a car where every second you get closer to your destination you have to pee that much more....

Totally sucks while its happening but the relief at the end will be worth it!

I didn't buy more BTC to replace those I spent for the Avalons solely because of Walletbit's delayed confirmation. I didn't know whether my payment actually counted towards the miners (or if it even existed) and it prevented me from getting those again for 20$. By the time they bothered communicating with me the price increased a few times over.

THANKS WALLETBIT!

I imagine they will be built in order and shipped back to back.  I would be very surprised if any batch 3 orders end up shipping before batch 2.

Was batch 2 only option for 66gh / 3unit version???

Batch 3 was 66gh /3units and 85gh/4units option but also  4 or 5 times more  expensive Huh

I am a b3 customer and would be supprised if both batches got shipped at ones...but who knows...!!

I paid only .046BTC/Gh more for Avalon 3 than Avalon 2. The price was nearly identical for those that managed to order on 2/2 & 2/3, it was only later when BTC/USD rose sharply that Avalon 2 appeared cheaper. This only happened because of walletbit's fail.

BTC side, it wasn't. And you calculate the return of a btc miner in btc. Don't you?

It seems to me that Avalon 2 is late.. Probably what happened is Avalon is installing their SMT and will ship Batch 2 and 3 simultaneously.
Seriously? God, your powers of observation are surprising!

I imagine they will be built in order and shipped back to back.  I would be very surprised if any batch 3 orders end up shipping before batch 2.
That's another interesting point of view, thanks for sharing!
