Any news on shipping yet?

I'm curious when the cut-off date was for October deliveries. I emailed KNC with that question.
Anyone know, that might tell us where we stand?

If you look at the KNC Miner thread, you can see approximate order numbers shipping now and those about to ship.

Majority of shares have been sold and paid for. 1 person is waiting on Coinbase and because he is already a partial shareholder I'll extend him the time required for Coinbase to finalize the transfer.

All 3 Jupiters have been order so for all practical purposes we can say this GB is closed!

Just curious but what is the ETA on the reservations in terms of placing the order?

This Wednesday.

Hey KnCMiningOp - Any updates?

Thanks and hope all is well,
IAS

Had some people not make payment. So 48 shares still left. I might make a quick loan to the op. Tomorrow is my absolute deadline to get this thing ordered.

Thanks for the update. I'm flat broke so can't pick up any more shares. Hope you find a way, but if not, still appreciate all the work you did.
We need a more transparent system so people who reserve shares like that and then don't pay don't do the same with other auctions. Yes - A handle list somewhere. No judgment, just sharing.

IAS

I understand where you are coming from and do think that some people should be on a list like that, but not everyone doesn't pay out of malicious reasons. Peoples finances change and things come up. I would be more for something along the lines of expanding the current trust system to incorporate promises/deliveries.

Agreed, I don't think we should penalize a person for canceling 1 time. But if someone has a history of it, then that should be integrated into a trust system. As, they basically stopped others from getting in and perhaps even are partly responsible for killing an auction. That then puts people like me (and the others in this auction) looking for another auction and then being further down the list. It also stops people from going into more than one auction and just seeing which one reaches the end first and canceling the other.

All shares have been reserved and/or paid for. There is the possibility that some shares might open up if any of the reservations don't pay in time. Please send me a PM or email and I can reserve any shares for you if that is the case.

Advantages of this group buy vs some of the others:

This will not become my property after X amount of months.
This will run until it is no longer profitable OR we decide to keep mining and pay for the electric/AC.
More affordable at .1 per share with no minimums.
20% of the profits are re-invested into additional mining hardware or other mining assets.

470 shares left.

Some people didn't pay in GB2 and someone asked for a refund in GB3, while some were moved up from GB3 to GB2.

As a result there are still 485 shares left in GB3.
