loool...

Well, I think you did all you could, and the ball is in the Avalon team's court.

I hope you do get your grubby paddy paws all over them.

Yeah, but I'm really not concerned that they'll try to screw me out of the order. I'm just concerned they'll ship it to the wrong place or it'll be sent back to China before I'm notified that there's a problem.

lol I even ordered a batch 3 unit and then publicly told Yifu to send my batch 2 order to the same shipping address as my batch 2 order, since their system for batch 3 orders works properly. Smiley Just don't want my mining company's money machine being driven aimlessly around the country by the DHL dood man. Me want it in me grubby paddy paws.

That didn't sound right...

Many that ordered during the cluster on Feb 2/3 did not receive a receipt from Avalon. I did not. I confirmed my order with Walletbit and supposedly that's good enough. The only thing that shows up when I check my account is my batch 3 order.

Quite the clusterfuck that was. Well, then I guess you and he should be all set as long as walletbit has the proper personal info (shipping address).

That's actually the problem, no way to tell for certain. The walletbit receipts don't have shipping address confirmations only TXIDs, batch #s, payment amounts, and payment dates. I've entered personal information at walletbit and at Avalon store, but without anything coming back to confirm...well it's disconcerting. One single email confirming shipping address and I'd sleep better, but it's not going to happen at this point.

Hmm :/ Yeah I see your point now. Did you by any chance take a screenshot when you placed the order. At the very least you could shove that in their faces if they fail to deliver due to errors in their stored information, etc.

What about your purchase receipt? Don't you have one of those. For sure your shipping address is listed there or SHOULD be. If you did not get a receipt then you indeed have a problem. Contact the Avalon team about if you do not have a receipt. You could also check your spam filters/folder just in case the e-mail got trapped there.

Batch 2 customers.  A couple quick questions, if you don't mind. 

Sounds like some of you can see your shipping address when you log into the store?  I can't. 

And can you see any orders in your history?  I can't.

They will indeed. Careful they are fully armed with heavy equipment. They might toss some old GPUs your way and hurt you badly. lol

I'm wondering whether batch #2 shipping will start on time given there's been no notification to trade-in customers to send their FPGAs...

Hmm that is a good point. I guess the trade-in notification will be the first sign of progress on batch #2 and with only 10 days to go...

Speaking of this, what do you suppose would be a good way to ship one rapidly into China?  I know DHL is good for shipping *from* China *into* the US...Do you suppose they are an equally good choice going in the other direction?

I dunno, there's a small skeeeery spike in ASICMiner's hashrate graph today.

Could you point to me where you can see ASICMiner's hashrate? I've heard they plan to have 1000Thash/sec by the end of the year :O

I heard 400000000000000000000000000000Th.

Actually they're hoping to add another 256Th last I heard. 7Th online now another 5Th in chips on hand, 50ish coming this month/early May and 200Th of chips on order, but they're also planning to auction hardware. It was unclear if those chips would come from their most recent 200Th chip order. Anyway some of the guys put up a googledoc here:

whoa, whoa people! I don't want to ruin your party here, but still not everyone got their avalons in batch 1. So it took them nearly 2 months to ship most of them. You hope batch 2 will be faster? Please state why (no trolling implied, honest)

There's no Chinese New Year in the middle

And experience improves operations

...and because:

We plan to start shipping majority of batch two orders starting on 15th of April. Not all the news is bad news however, originally around this period we are suppose to take this time to organize, make some changes and install a brand new SMT line in our facility. This upgrade will effectively double our production capacity, it enable us to put Avalon into the hands of our customer even faster. The new line is currently scheduled to come online during the last week of April. We expect batch two and three to ship much faster than batch one mainly there is no Chinese New Year and we have overcome the problems encountered in shipping batch one.

Time will tell I guess, but these guys are the only ones to deliver thus far.
