X1s arrived today with LCDs.

Running is my quickly setup chrome browser, next firmware/software update will bundle it all nicely together. Otherwise its a full android 4.2.2 machine with ethernet.

Wow,.. that's actually sexy, just makes me that much more sad that I'll never see my X3s before Halloween.

Oh, this is a smartphone?

That's great!

The funny thing here is that I was defending your company and Minersource when PG was flaming this thread. It was not until you announced that you would not be standing by your promise to price match and give proper compensation that I decided to jump ship. So you can call me a troll but at this point it just seems like the pot calling the kettle black.

The fact that you have time to come here and make snarky remarks instead of answering the questions that have been repeatably asked is just more evidence of the level of incompetence that your company exudes.

But please by all means keep it up, its not like you have a reputation to uphold. It is already very clear that you have surpassed BFL in the absolute failure department and are heading full steam to join HashFast in bankruptcy court.

Just to put the extent of this miserable failure in perspective, cex.io is already significantly cheaper now than what any batch 1 or 2 customer would've paid.

Wish I had never, ever mined with anything but a GPU. What a huge waste of time and money.

We had to wait for the chips. We had to wait for the boards. We had to wait for the cases. We had to wait for the power supplies (oh no wait bring your own). We had to wait FOR THE F*CKING LCDs

An LCD on a Bitcoin miner which has a lifespan of 4-6 months if we are lucky. And they delayed it again to put a LCD on it.

Talk about arranging deck chairs on the Titanic.

I'm posting updates about that in this thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/black-arrow-customers-consumer-complaints-links-681965 - since BA doesn't have the time or manpower to handle refunds atm, but sure has the time and manpower to delete threads and moderate this topic, I'll keep the details there.

I've just recieved this email from BA:

Quote
Dear XXX,

Please be advised that your order is already ready for dispatch and it will be shipped in the next few days.

Sincerely,
Sylvia

While I'm still trying to recover from the laughing fit, it just shows that as soon as they now your order number, they'll try to fuck you over even more. Ah hillarious, especially since my order was to be hosted for 12 months and no delivery should be necessary.

Gotta love BA, all that's missing is the perpetual Benny Hill theme.

Neither MS nor BA are prepared to answer the question: which payment date are you now shipping orders for? It's a simple fucking question unless you're using a tombola to pick the orders.

Saying "that's not how shipping order is determined" is not good enough unless it's immediately followed by the process in which shipping order is determined. Quit bullshitting us and give some info to your customers, NOW.

No clear answer means we can only assume this is the process for picking orders for shipment (and also indicates a fucking sham of a business):-

Originally BA told us we were receiving many more units than we did on this shipment. Because of that, we weren't able to fulfill as many orders."

As told by Bobsag: Order number has nothing to do with shipping order!
Thad sayed: I have no idea how they pick the customers who get the package ...

Yes,you are correct and I'm looking PAID date,not order #   You said you PAID by wire on Dec/13/13,I paid Dec/3/13 but yesterday i'm told I still have people in front of me.

Let's hope we are in the shipping of this week, or at worse next week ! Anyway most of us are on the same boat...

I was told they didn't get as many X-1s as expected so if you didn't get a tracking number yet it's doubtful you will this week.

I order with MS Dez. 2013. #120xA and received it last week in Switzerland.
Up and running since then.

Well thats F'ing irritating! i paid on December 2nd 2013, i was #400 in the old system, then i "never got converted" in the new system, ended up with order #2434A. I knew that my delay was just going to be even longer when my order failed to merge in to the new system.

I even contacted their support about this and they assured me that things were shipping in the order they were paid... Bull Sh!t MS!

As long as you did get moved over and have that A on your order you should be fine,BUT did you contact them and ask for the LCD? if you did your order was propably held back until they arrived with LCD. I asked a couple weeks ago for the LCD to be "included if available",reply was simply "noted". then I seen Atomars post,when I asked MS what was going on the said "you asked for your order to be held",when I corrected them on that i was told on july/31 "We have amended your request, your unit will be the next unit to ship out." yesterday  "I am not sure why Thomas told you that you are the next to go out, as there are still a couple orders ahead of you by paid date"   I asked when the next shipment should be and showed him Atomars post,no responce,yet

"I paid dec 3rd 2013. But I wouldn't count on them shipping in the order of payment since there are a lot of people who paid later and already got theirs. Maybe it's some conspiracy thing again, but is it possible they ship the X-1's with the cheapest shipping cost first just to keep their cost low? Are there a lot of people outside of the US who received theirs?"

We paid for our own shipping so that shouldn't be an issue. Yes some outside U.S. have received X=1s,UK and Spain that i know of. Did you get a tracking # yet?


Didn't get any tracking # yet, they even told me three days ago the following:

"We have done our best in a challenging situation to deliver your order as quickly as possible, and are pleased to report that your shipment will be released for delivery between in the next 1-3 weeks."

So I guess it could still be three weeks here....
