“Now on to shipping. In the ~8 hours I was there I saw 2 people box up and ship out 2 large shipments with well over 100 orders… Notice orders, not Jalapenos, some of those orders had up to 4 Jally’s each in them, and one of the 2 people who were working in the shipping dept was only on her second day working with BFL. Shipping by no means will be a bottleneck, they can box up thousands of orders a day with 6-10 people working a good day I would assume. I saw how MiniRigs are going to be boxed up...

well these "100 orders" are all jally's atm i believe. quote mentions to notice they're orders not jalapenos, but in reality they are orders consisting only jally's, as my early 16XX order made within 2 hours after bfl announcement of pre-orders last year still shows status "processing".

but i guess we're getting closer.

I don't think singles have gone out customers yet, but at least one single has shipped to a dev. Undecided

The mini rig that is now up on their site is not like the original. It is a watered down version at 1/3 the hashing rate.

500GH/s for $22,000.

Thats great it only took them 51 weeks to do it and 60 GH/s isn't going to be much soon.

There are people on BFL forums who state they received only part of their Jally orders from a particular order date.

If they had 4 they got 2. If they had 8 they got 2 or 4. Etc.

Ok, but doesnt really refute the fact that they are almost done with august jalapenos. Even skeptics should concede thats a lot of units. Confirmed by people on this forum they have shipping confirmation. id say pics and story back that up so really what there to dog and pony. Its reality.

finally its happening but how many can they build/shipout is the main question... no one wants to get their units by XMAS and miss out on all the fun, will become a paper weight

Seems like a whole lot. seeing as they are almost done with august japalepno orders already. Really just seems to be constrained to the supply of boards they get from their assembly house.

If you extrapolate linearly, it looks like to ship Jalapenos orders placed this week, it will take 42 days. It took about 1 day to ship one week of orders from August (https://forums.butterflylabs.com/blogs/bfl_jody/189-monday-6-10-2013-shipping-update.html and https://forums.butterflylabs.com/blogs/bfl_jody/190-tuesday-june-11-shipping-update.html and https://forums.butterflylabs.com/blogs/bfl_jody/191-wednesday-june-12-shipping-update.html). This is assuming they don't get any better at shipping, nothing happens during the production of these units and the shipping of the other products doesn't encroach on shipping the Jalapenos.

Who knows shipping timeline of the 50 gh/s units?!

They should ship them to me in batches!!! Grin

I'll get them all shipped out within 1 day to customers.

Finally, an end to the BFL saga is in sight. Hopefully they get their orders out faster than the Jalapenos.

The also put their new Mini rig back on the product page, it's a lot more expensive then say KCminer, with the 2mth+ lead time it's probably not worth it.

Yeahhh... not gonna lie terrible price point and will never ever pay even close to itself back. Primarily because you will never get it.

I think I speak for ever BFL customer when I say "about damn time" - if shipping rate follows the same general time table as jally shipments did - my orders will be otw by this time next month.
