there has to be a "prototype" picture at the least for a company to accept Pre-Order Full Down Payments 3 months in advance...


screen shots of Said Numbers...


i mean, we are going off a few super late fpga singles & rigs shipped out only recently... so... where's said product?


even prototypes typically have blueprints, sketches, photoshops, eh... yeah.

Why bother with facts when you can make something up? People are throwing their bitcoins at them anyway!

We've been working with Bit-Pay for a BTC exclusive order form.  This is meant to both promote the good services of Bit-Pay and give dedicated miners a bit of an advantage in getting in position.  We'll have that posted later tonight.  Alternate payment methods of Dwolla and BankWire will come shortly thereafter.

Please help...   We're respectful of the significance of order position, but we can't think of any good way to organize it other than opening it up to orders and letting it go as it may.

Another alternative is to go odd / even.   Odd being consecutive down the priority list and even being a random selection from orders that month.  

Any thoughts on this?


No plans for PP or CC?

PP will come later.  We don't process CC's.

waiting for PP.  any idea on when i should check back?

My solution:

Open up a pre–order list from Monday till mid–july, then close it.

This will give everyone ample time to order

Make an inventory of what has been ordered and start producing exactly that amount

When all the pre–Orders have been produced, pack them and ship them off at the same day in october, be it jalapenos, singles or rigs.

That way everone will receive their products around the same time



This is the most fair proposal I've heard.

+1.  Announcing a preorder a day before you do it and not even posting the announcement on your website is a little.. weird.

+2. Fair for everyone.

+3 this is a fair solution.

+4 BFL please read this and change your plans.

+5 Sounds good to me.

I think this is a good idea but it runs the risk of a massive epic hashrate dump on the network within a couple of days that may mean that even the first buyers don't make money on the ASIC. Difficulty may suddenly blow up so fast that nobody makes any money. There's going to be an 8 TH dump by gigavps already right at the beginning of the ASIC penetration.

Kindly asking BFL to postpone (1+ week) to allow time to put move more $$ to BTC

Concur with this. Would like BFL to announce a pre-order date at least 72 hours in advance to give people time to move funds to BTC.

My idea on the orderiing is this: randomize the order book by the day. This means everyone who orders June 24th will get theirs before June 25th, but it makes it less of a quick click scramble to get your order in. This is fair because there is little difference in loss between someone who had their money tied up for 120 days versus someone who had it tied up for 120 days and 23 hours.

Well then not only do people in Europe miss atleast 10 first golden days of hashing compared to American customers, but are also hit by 18%-25% of import tax depending on Country.

What is BFL supposed to do about the import tax for non-Americans?

-4 It's not fair because international orders take much longer to deliver.

Still, it's by far the most fair distribution based solely on their output - not delivery networks.  Send out international orders shortly prior to the remainder.
