Chips will be graded and priced as follows:
Grade A: 16 Engines - $97/chip
Grade B: 15 Engines - $93/chip
Grade C: 14 Engines - $89/chip
Grade D: 13 Engines or less - $83/chip
Chip orders will require 50% down and 50% upon order delivery. Payment can be made via BTC (preferred) or bank wire.
Advantages of BFL chips:
1/2 the power usage per GH as the closest competitor
1/10th the silicon area per GH as the closest competitor (Very high performance density)
You can use off the shelf heat sinks depending on your chip layout due to FCBGA package vs custom underside heat sinks as required on some QFN packages. You don't have to design and manufacture heat sinks!
Proven design currently operating in the field and ready to go.
I will be purchasing Grade A chips. If you would like to purchase other chips, that should be fine as it is my understanding that the chip minimum is not required for each separate Grade.
I will update this message as information becomes available. As I stated earlier, this will be purchased sometime on Monday so time is of the essence.
Cheers!

I'm cancelling this group buy because I really just don't want to deal with all the shit that apparently comes with trying to help people out. I'm taking my ball and going home. Hopefully you can get some chips via the other group buy which is listed here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/group-buy-bfl-asics-board-design-underway-223335
