so like... you are allowed to blatantly trick facebook users with a wrong URL in your ad?

how is this up days later?

Sorry for being a n00b it seems like a really huge hole in FB ads...

with BFL being one of the filthiest companies around the ad really didn't shock me all that much.  In fact it seemed like a logical next marketing step as they circle the drain.

1) I have to hand it Facebook, I have never used something so much that I hate with such a passion and cannot bring my stupid, weak human brain to delete the account as many times as I've hovered the link and read about account closure:



2) but of course BFL is far greater evil.  Yes, they have approved and paid for an ad citing 72 hour shipping.

I read somewhere that the link this ad takes you to is not actually BFL...
Micon - did you click on the link?


EDIT: btw - the 'somewhere' I read it at is:

Wow, that's bad, is that really real?!

 That's pretty brazen if it's in-fact a real advertisement. It's outright false advertising if so.

BFL don't lie therefore it must be facebook's fault. Expect BFL's lawyers to be on the case if you haven't been keeping them too busy  Wink

EDIT: Confirmed on reddit to be a scam and unrelated to BFL entirely.

The arrogance is strong with this "business".

If all the June Minirig orders have received at least one 500GH/s unit, that's quite a few TH/s added to the net already.

Yes, all 6 mini-rig pre-orders from June 2012 have received 1/3rd of their order.  Cheesy

How convenient that they overestimated their ASIC's power efficiencies. Would of been a problem taking a chainsaw to a single 1500GH/s unit

It's not everyday that a person pays for a complete product but only receives a 1/3 and is happy about it.

Also, I don't think the same people who are receiving other units sans PSUs would do the same if they ordered another product of which their livelihood depend upon said purchase.


You have the option of waiting or taking delivery now sans the PSU.

ALL A PACK OF LIES FROM BFL

What was really happening was BFL were hoping for 300 pre-orders a day with no intention to ship more than it would take to keep the pre-orders coming and shipping only what was necessary to placate the masses of angry and frustrated clients.


The masses don't exactly seem placated...

Thank you for your copy-paste.
No one know this blog url before.
This is a thread about BFL shipping, if you don't like it leave.

There is some others threads about BFL shipping, and everyone that copy-paste same info that is in blog in my opinion just increasing post count
by meaningless posts.
This thread is about BFL
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=150803.2600

If you going to make 1kk different threads about BFL: Shipping, Boxing, Ordering, Spamming, Promises, Lies etc... this forum will be full of BFL threads.

This thread is just joking about Josh lies about shipping units/day and is not official topic about BFL products.

Still all this is my opinion, if you dont like it - dont read it.

Hey All,

Just came across this article on CoinDesk, figured I'd share it: http://www.coindesk.com/inside-butterfly-labs-the-challenges-of-producing-bitcoin-mining-hardware/

They claim to be shipping 300 units a day; the fact that very very few of you have been receiving yours makes that possibility a little scary... They're shipping orders in the order in which they were received, but even if they were only shipping 5 GH/s units, that's 1.5 TH/s a day being added to the network; 45 TH/s a month. Scary stuff!

i just see that BFL is ship th order for 5GH/s order by Nov 2012..
