I just got my order processed, the waiting game begins. There is another thread on this subforum where people post up their order numbers and what they ordered for BFL Monarchs. Maybe we should create one for BA orders to track delivery success too.

About when did you pay and with what?

Thanks

yeah, I shouldn't worry, they will get round to it.  From past experience, it took a while for my payment status to change, but I got the goods as promised.

There was probably a mad rush to get orders in before the December discount reduction.


I am not really worried about status change, just the fact that they got my BTC and all is kosher.
When I was quoted BTC was at $1070 (not sure what $ they used for converting) , I paid about 6hrs later when it was around $100. Went to bed and woke up to a ~$7XX number and no any kind of a response for 2 days now.
So you can see what my real concern is.

Which exchange are you quoting your prices from?

Somewhere I read that they were using BTC-e to convert, so I  referenced that one.

I saw that yesterday................guess the rise in BTC price had something to with that,since that $269 was there since the beginning  Roll Eyes

No, it clearly states on the first post of this thread:

We are currently offering 35% discount to customers who pay their order in full and 20% discount to customers who wish to pay 50% in advance and 50% before shipment. After October 2013 we will reduce the discounts gradually until they reach their full retail price which is $415 for Prospero X1 (100Ghash) and $6999 for Prospero X3 (2000Ghash).

I found that confusing on their website.The figures I saw in the little drop down window a month or so ago made me go "WTF" Huh  Cheesy   Just didn't add up correctly to me,oh well.................

I'm still going to wait to see an actual chip.I don't believe anything or anyone since my BFL/Avalon fiasco days  Roll Eyes

How can you order 3 units? I only see an option to order 10 units...

Why is that? Maybe it's been covered already, but this thread is getting pretty long... Roll Eyes

I´m confused...

Well, that was not nice of them.
I was going to order 3 units today, but i don´t have the extra 270USD.
I´ll spend my money on buying more Bitcoins instead.

Owner, Minersource.net

They closed my ticket for payment within an hour or so when they added a payment btc address. What I'm talking about now is some sort of confirmation/response that my payment went through noticed. So I opened a different ticket inquiring the status of my order to no avail. My order still says "waiting for payment" even though I have 300+ confirmations for that transaction.

Both their orders and My orders have to be updated in the system by hand, and as you can imagine that takes a while... I usually only update my orders once or twice a day because of the time needed.

So anyone is getting any communication from BA?
I haven't even gotten an invoice for my 2nd order.

Seems like we are in the same boat, I haven't gotten any new communications from BA either.
