Topic: Butterfly Labs shipping 300 units a day - page 17. (Read 29026 times)

BFL has their head stuck so far up their ass that they can't even purchase the correct sticky notes.

Minirigs: First day.
Singles: First day.
Little Singles: First day.
Jalapenos: Actually shipping. In the past 4 months they've shipped 4 months worth of Jalapeno orders. They are down to only 9 months worth of Jalapeno backlogs left to ship.

They are shipping. However, they are still on the first day of singles and the sun continues to rise and set, thus they are falling further behind in terms of time and more importantly mining difficulty.

Actually, people would be able to verify that their order was in the ledger. Then they would know when to expect their unit and roughly how much hash rate is between them and receipt of their merchandise. They can watch as BFL makes progress through it and make an informed decision as to whether to ask for a refund or not.


Actually, the math says that the people who "placed a timely order" would have benefited far more by just holding onto their BTC or buying it from an exchange, rather than buying BFL mining equipment to get BTC. So it is not with jealousy but with relief that I look on those who received Singles for 200BTC and I thank my lucky stars that I am not one of them.

Unfortunately, some folks still think they got a good deal.

Edit: Ah. Now it becomes clear.

I'd ask you to read the thread history of BFL (wholly owned subsidiary of Two More Weeks Inc.) to understand the animosity towards Inaba and his band of merry sockpuppets, but I know you won't. 

I bet there are many discussions which are even less productive than this one, but really, this is childish territory.

It's well established BFL is shipping units and catching up with their huge backlog.

What would a stack of units at a BFL warehouse even prove?  It would prove nothing with respect to their actual shipping rate.  I doubt they're posting these to prove shipping rate ability...they're posting them so miner-wanna-be's will drool over them and click "order!"...look they even added a pretty lady, same as muscle-car magazines do .  Props to their marketing dept.  BFL trying to milk their NRE costs to the max, like any business would be well-advised to do.

Do you want proof BFL is shipping?  The best you'll get is their posting of shipped order dates, and not finding actual buyers saying they're lying.

If BFL posted their shipping ledger, those that passed up on placing a timely order would still come out and cry disbelief.  This perma-hate reaction seems to be some sort of defense-mechanism which only serves to help the poster cope with the crude reality of their poor decision-making, now getting unraveled.

BFL did delay the start of shipments by an intolerable amount of months.  But in the end, I'll say I now kick myself for buying into the mass hysteria on these boards, and not placing my order sooner than I did.  After all, these units where being offered at $124 each.  That was a puny amount of cash to put at risk.

Whatever amount of skeptics out there, BFL no longer needs to prove they're not a scam to continue taking new orders, convincing the skeptics is no longer relevant to their business.  That being said, I'm not advocating placing orders with BFL now.  If you didn't get in with an order in 2012 or early 2013, you're not likely to recover the cost of a BFL unit at this point.  Best try your luck with the new crop of cheaper, more energy-efficient ASIC vendors, maybe cloudhashing shares, or just speculate with BTC directly.

If you're one of those that missed the train and now can't help but post nonsense after-the-fact, start dealing with it in a productive way...maybe sign up for bungee-jumping or parachuting classes, that may help you cope better with the next risky proposition you choose to pass up.

300 a day....What the serious shit I have ever heard.

Do they do good? Never

While trying to find an image with more than 20 units in one picture, I think I found the issues with the previous (and somewhat ongoing) shipping delays...



They are using the sticky note system to mark orders!  Eventually those stickies don't stick no more... now there is chaos in trying to establish who ordered what cause all of the stickies are falling off!  ahhhh!!  
(yes, this is a joke... I am sure there is a legitimate reason for the stickies!... I wonder if the butterfly stickies are custom made...  )


EDIT: If they are going through 300 stickies a day, it might be a wiser investment right now to invest in sticky notes    

You are telling lies again !!!

Proof it ...

There has never been a picture of more than 20 as has been demonstrated here once again

They are most certainly not shipping 300 singles per day, and they most have taken pictures of hundreds of jalapenos in production before.

I haven't bought any BFL products, but I'd find it hard to believe they wouldn't take a picture of more than 18 units if they had 300/day shipping.... maybe they mean 300 chips per day are leaving the warehouse?   

If you're all LTC, why are you bothered about what BFL do?  It's literally none of your business, as you haven't paid for anything, and obviously don't intend to do so. 

You're just trolling and talking crap.

Plus one. (since all +1 are now being deleted)

Honestly look in the mirror you fucking moron !!!

I have no orders with any BTC equipment of any description ..... ALL LTC and proud of it !!

What i do take exception to is con men,scam artists,thiefs and liars..

You are in this group....you waste of space..contstantly trying to misrepresent the truth and SPIN every situation  to BFL adavantage you SIR are a fucking joke !!

When people smear something, it's usually because they have a vested interesting in something that it is competing with, so you just have to work out what that is.

I recall Avalon, but at the time I placed my order with BFL, Avalon was not taking orders, neither was their pricing in my neighborhood anyway.  Lucky those who got Avalons...I try to not let stuff that was never in my cards affect me.

What I don't understand is the incessant talk of scams and stunts, as evidence accumulates pointing otherwise.  The BFL delays severely impaired the value of the shipped units, no doubt about that.

The group of Avalon pics above was taken over a course of 19 days using 3 different cameras of which the GPS info was either not on or erased, according EXIF by Jeffrey.

I counted 22, not 18, boxes on the table: One for each original employee of BFL.

BFL isnt shipping 300 units a day... they might be shipping 30 units day, on a good day.


Ouch, thats really painful! Once again human nature betrays our best interests...

I fear this is a trend which will lead to our downfall. The Earth will be around long after we are gone though.

The concept of "Earth Day" is kind of funny. As if its The Earth that needs saving... lmao

.....lol

firstly there are NO real ASICS for Sale..tese are all pre-orders that have been paid with other ppls money !!

secondly the estimated time of delivery even if the total lies of 300 per day can be believed (they have trouble showing 18 on a table )
it will still take 9 months to get through the backlog

and finally

18 box's stacked on a table..... (everything is a fucking PR stunt of EPIC proportions..where are 300 for the 1 day !!)

vs

1 million chips ...this is the BFL story vs Avalon !!!

The heck was that?  Someone in Taiwan is very excited about ASICs, that came through loud and clear.

Door 1: 20 boxes with fans
Door 2: 2.1 million chips

I'll take door number 2!
